The Blades Library Book Club: Casino Royale
Welcome to The Blades Library Book Club — the place for quality discussions of the books of James Bond!
Every two months a book will be chosen for the club members to read. Once the book is chosen, a thread will be posted listing locations where the novel (or short story collection) can be found. Discussions about the book will go on as the book is read and when it is finished. A separate forum thread will be created for members to post their review and rating of the current book.
All fans of the Literary Bond are eligible for membership. All you need to do to sign up is register for the CBn Forums and then post your name in the sign up thread.
