    The first book is interesting… it has the typical Bond setup… here’s your mission, your exotic location, and your beautiful assistant… and Bond goes:

    “A woman? What are you sending a woman for, she’ll only get in the way.”

    (!)

    I was surprised!

      Book Bond is a much more textured and vulnerable character than movie Bond is generally allowed to be.
