1.0 out of 5 starsAwful, even at a quarter of the price charged
By Dr Doom on November 30, 2015
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Mediocre at best. It really never rises above the level of the $5 books on the bargain table near the checkout at B&N.

When it does hit those racks in the near future, it'll be the perfect obligatory gift for the person you don't really know or care about, but might haves seen a Bond movie at some point in their life.I'm not sure what the book is really about, or who its intended audience is. Most James Bond fans are at least as familiar with the information in here, and the prose is less than compelling. As another reviewer points out, the text is not without inaccuracies. As a catalog of "cars" it's fairly indiscriminate, and includes cars, helicopters, airplanes, motorcycles etc. I may have missed it it, but it wouldn't surprise me if it included bicycles as well.

The book's greatest sin is the photography. This is a coffee table book- but outside of the nicely done dust jacket, there's little to recommend it. The photos in a book are a mix of stock photos, stills, screen caps, and images that were taken at shows. The lighting in most is awful and many are poorly cropped. The layout and choice of photos would be embarrassingly bad if it were a high school kid laying out the entire yearbook the night before it's due. Why, for example, does a still of Roger Moore, cigar in hand, next to a wrecked 1st gen Fox Mustang rate a 2 page spread?
As I said, mediocre at best. Horrible at the price.

4.0 out of 5 starsIt in the details.
By Philip Miner on November 25, 2015
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Nice book--the photos are a blend of screen grabs, studio poses and stock photos of specific cars. A pity that either the author (French) or the translator (American) didn't catch that the front fender of a motorcycle (pictured with Sean Connery) clearly reads "Moto Guzzi", while it is identified as a Harley-Davidson in the caption. Makes one wonder what other mistakes exist. What do proof-readers look for?

1.0 out of 5 starsI'll be returning this one.
By silvahalo on December 2, 2015
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
The last thing I needed was another James Bond coffee table book. But I love the cars so saw this as a must have. So disappointed.

The book has a strange layout and doesn't tackle the films chronologically. While this may seem a fresh approach it is a sly way to add in a lot of filler without it being as noticeable. The hero cars (barring the DB5) seem to get no preferential treatment over all the other random vehicles in the films (and there are a lot). The last third of the book is reserved for 'other vehicles' and anything that had a motor in or on it is there. Waste of space. There are glaring mistakes in the content. One caption for The Living Daylights car lists it as an Aston Martin V9 Vantage. A V9? Also the author doesn't mention the fact that there were actually two different Aston models featured in the film but made to look as the same car. The FYEO Esprits get a few scant paragraphs while we get pages and pages on the history of Rolls Royce, a brand that is only a background player in the Bond films. The Aston Martin DBS featured in OHMSS has about a page of information on it but then there is not one single picture of it!
And that brings me to the pictures. The photography is probably the most offending thing about this tome. Made up of mostly grainy, screen grabs and production stills we've seen a million times over, it really leaves something to be desired. There are snapshots of few cars on exhibition that look like they were taken by someone on holiday. These photos paired with the uninspired writing offers little insight on the cars that the average Bond fan wouldn't already know. I'll keep on waiting for a better one. This is going back.

2.0 out of 5 starsThe Bond franchise deserves a better curated product
By Rodrigo J Lopez on December 7, 2015

I was unimpressed with the overall quality of this book. The Bond franchise deserves a better curated product, particularly when it comes to cars. The photography in particular left a lot to be desired of. Overall I was disappointed.
