3.0
Is a good story of James Bond as a teenager during WWII & is induction, training & introduction into what would soon be called MI5. The pacing of the story was good as was the art. Some points felt a little to angsty for me. I don’t know maybe I’m being overly critical. I can say I enjoyed for what it was meant to be & would recommend.

James Bond's exploits during WWII after surviving the Clydebank Blitz, a Luftwaffe attack on Scottish ship yards, and joining the Royal Navy. With recommendations from family friends and his unique skill set Bond is directed toward training and missions that lean toward spy work. Not yet the secret agent with a license to kill that he will become Bond is a resourceful soldier building the skills and exploits that will make him into that someday. The art helps convey the mood and action from the inside of a silent and damaged submarine trying to outwit a German destroyer to the streets of occupied Portugal. I would rate this book 3.5 stars if Goodreads allowed half stars.
