A review by mike_brough
Doctor No by Ian Fleming

4.0

A light, fast and entertaining read. I last read the Bond books 30-odd years ago and I was worried that they wouldn't have held up well. I needn't have worried. Fleming knows how to keep your attention - there isn't a slow passage in the whole book.

And the writing is slightly 'deeper'than I'd remembered. The book isn't overwritten but it's not overly-simplistic, either.

On to the next one. Thunderball, I think.
