Title: "Larry's Bond's New Direction is a Winner!"
Product review: Leaving the techno-thriller genre, Bond has gone more for the realm of suspense and intrigue. And it works! Reviving Colonel Thorn and Agent Gray from "The Enemy Within," Bond puts them on the trail of a Saudi prince with a grand scheme to cripple the U.S. Circumstances force Them to operate outside the law to thwart the operation. An excellent job showing the dangers of operating rogue. Loved some of the moral and legal dilemmas Thorn and Gray had to face. The bad guys are smart and sophisticated, covering their tracks masterfully and taxing all of Thorn and Gray's abilities to the limit. Not as many action scenes as in previous Bond novels, but the drama and intigue do hold you. The final battle is awesome! Great supporting characters as well, from Thorn's old C.O. General Farrell to slimey FBI Assistant Director McDowell, who's got his own agenda and a hatred toward Agent Gary. Great story! A real winner!
