The Novelization of the Movie that shares only a name with the Fleming novel. This novelization actually had more of a Fleming feel than the movie with its version of Bond being more brutal and less funny and charming than Roger Moore's portrayal in the movie. The author was also a screenwriter for the movie and demonstrated a great feel for the characters both in the books and movies. A fun read for a fan of all things Bond.
