A review by invisiblejones
The Man With the Golden Gun by Ian Fleming

3.0

Ian Fleming's final Bond novel, published a year after Fleming's death, is an empty affair that seems to do little more than go through the motions. That those motions can be of interest for the duration of the novel is a credit to Fleming and the character he created. However, the writing feels rushed and lacks the detail, humor and character interaction that one has come to expect from a James Bond story. In the end, The Man With The Golden Gun stands as a cardboard epitaph to the Bond series.
