Rating: - It's the fifth book
Having just spent 10 minutes trying to work out what number this is in the series to check I haven't missed one, I can now tell you that it is the fifth. The others, in order, are:
Silverfin
Bloodfever
Double or Die
and Hurricane Gold.
Don't know what this is like but my son (now 13, has been reading them as they came out)loved the first 4.

Rating: - Zzzzzz Yawn. DONT BOTHER.
What a waste of time, its the worst of all the Young james bond books. Why is it we have a fantastic hero such as James Bond, we have brilliant authors in this country, Joe Craig, Anthony Horowitz, JK Rowling, Robert Muchamore all who have proved themselves as brilliant YA authors and yet the Flemming people choose a comedian to write the young James Bond adventures.
Silverfin was a great book, Hurricane Gold was a copy of Alex Rider and Skeleton key, now I read the much awaited 'By Royal Command' ... Read More

Please dont let him write another. Great Britain has the worlds greatest authors.
Anthony Horowitz; Alex Rider, Jason Steed, Ravens Gate, Necropolis.

Joe Craig who brought us Jimmy Coates is also the couson of James Bond Actor Daniel Crag.
Yet we have comedian Charlie Higson and part time author writing the ... Read More

Rating: - A Fantastic end to a Brilliant Series
This book was thoroughly enjoyable to read, and after reading all of the previous of the Young Bond series this was no worse than the others. I can't say it was any better as they are simply amazing page turners which have you going for 'just one more chapter'. I read both (young) James Bond and Alex Rider and the two are both superb.
This is worth the pennies, so go and get it NOW! If you haven't read the first 4, do that!

100% great.

Rating: - A let down. Ok its alright but it out classed
A huge let down. This was Ok, thats all. Boring in a few places, typical in the next. James falls in love this time and acts way out of character compared to the other James Bond books. I am sorry to say the worst of Young James Bond.
Alex Rider author Anthony Horowitz and Jimmy Coates author Joe Craig, Twilight Author Stephene Meyers and Jason Steed author Mark Cooper know how to write about teenagers, love and spys.
Charlie Higson has the ground work done by Ian Flemming yet he does not use it. ... Read More
