Dead Bond Brainwashed and Back!,
By
This review is from: The Man With the Golden Gun (Paperback)
Bond, presumed dead from his previous mission, reappears at HQ and in a brainwashed state attempts to kill M. After some reprogramming by the scecret service - which we are not privy to unfortunately - bond is given an assignment to kill a well known assasin. M figures that if Bond succeeds he will have earned back his status - if not - he will be dead. What follows is a somewhat atypical Bond novel. I have read about half of the Bond novels and this one is a little different. Bond seems tentative, morose and haunted in his return to Jamacia. There are also some plot devices that are difficult to take seriously (for example, Ms. Goodnight coming in though his hotel window?). The master assassin in the story is only vaguely interesting, and the organization he is a part of reminds me of the crime sydicate from Dr. No. All in all it is not a bad book - but there are certianly better in the series.
