Raymond, If you are monitoring these site: I thought you did a fine job and enjoyed your efforts.

One other thing... I'd like to see Raymond's Casino Royale' stage play and Jenkins' 'Per Fine Ounce'.
The heirs of Fleming's estate can relax- after fifty-some years, nothing is going to devalue the Bond franchise. "Good in a fight,
but better at play. God-like in giving, but the devil to pay." |

As I said before, I recently re-read Doubleshot and enjoyed it a great deal more than I remember. It's really shot up there for me and I now consider it one of RB's best Bond novels.

Very nice overview of the book - looking forward to reading it when the Blades Book Club get to it.
