3.0 out of 5 stars
Mixed bag for Bond fans,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: James Bond in The Man From Barbarossa (Hardcover)
I found this to be one of the more difficult Bond continuation novels to read. That's not to say that it's poorly written--it contains some very good characterizations and some intricate plotting. However, it departs fairly drastically from the 'Bond formula' (if there is such a thing)--dealing with issues of war crimes, genocide and terrorism. Additionally, I found the structure of the novel to be very slow--there's little of the globe-trotting Bond that we've learned to follow around from Fleming and from the films.
