A good storyBy CustomerA little far fetched in some places. Particularly the ending. Up until then I had enjoyed it more than most of Gardner's Bond novels. I was surprised by an obvious ad placement in the story.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. BROKENCLAWBy PAUL EDELSONIT HAS BEEN MANY YEARS AGO THAT I HAD FIRST READ BROKENCLAW AND FOR ME THE FIRST TIME I READ. A JAMES BOND BOOK WRITTEN BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN IAN FLEMING. I NOTICED RIGHT A WAY A DIFFERENT KIND OF WRITING STYLE . I WAS TO FIND OUT BY THE END OF THE BOOK THAT DIFFERENT DID NOT MEAN BAD. SO NOW THAT I AM READING GARDNER'S BOND BOOKS IN SEQUENCE I WAS GLAD TO BE BACK TO BROKENCLAW FOR A SECOND TIME. IT STILL HAD THE SAME TENSE THRILL IT HAD THE FIRST TIME WITH THE PART THAT WAS SIMILAR TO THE OLD MOVIE,"A MAN CALLED HORSE".WHILE THERE ARE SEVERAL SECTIONS THAT DO DRAG A BIT, THEY GO BY QUICKLY AND THE BOOK ON A WHOLE IS A GREAT BOND THRILLER.

The site comprises the ‘old’ Goldeneye property, formerly owned by Ian Fleming, well known author of the James Bond books, and ‘new’ Goldeneye, predominantly lands reclaimed by the government-owned Urban Development Corporation in the mid-1970’s. The overall property is encompassed in several certificates of title, registered in the names of companies controlled by the Island group and Mr. Christopher Blackwell, the project’s sponsor. The development comprises the construction of resort villas, cottages and apartments, all of which will be sold. A resort rental pool operation is to be established and operated by Island Outpost Ltd that will require supporting hotel central facilities. The development will be undertaken in two phases and involves the construction of approx. 24,000 SM (260,000 SF) of covered building area. ‘Old’ Goldeneye has 19 residential lots for sale with an average of area of 1,146 SM (12,333 SF). Of these 19 lots, six already have buildings constructed on them and they will be sold without further development. It is intended that the remaining thirteen lots will be sold undeveloped with purchasers being responsible for the construction of residences under the developer’s direct supervisory control.

Ian Fleming (1908–64), Novelist and Journalist
22 Ian Fleming (1908–64), Novelist and Journalist JOHN HATCHER Fleming at Yugawara hot spring in 1959 1959 TOKYO VISIT When Ian Fleming arrived in Japan in November 1959 dressed in his habitual lightweight dark blue suit, polka dot bow tie and moccasins, an ebony cigarette holder clamped between his teeth, he was only just coming into the first flush of his success as the creator of James Bond. Since Casino Royale (1953) he had published six Bond novels, with Goldfinger having been published a few months earlier. Film companies were sniffing around – Fleming himself favoured James Stewart or Richard Burton for Bond, with Hitchcock as director – but the world- wide Bond cult would not really take off until the first Bond movie in 1962. In any case, James Bond was far from Fleming’s mind. After churning out a book a year since 1952, he was growing weary of his hero, who seemed to be taking over his life. He was in Tokyo on an all- expenses-paid escape and escapade: the Sunday Times had dispatched him on a five-week tour of his personal canon of ‘the thrilling cities of the world’ – Hong Kong, Macao, Tokyo, Honolulu, Los Angeles, 221 BRITAIN & JAPAN: BIOGRAPHICAL PORTRAITS VOLUME VI Las Vegas, Chicago, New York.1 Unlike his friend Somerset Maugham, who had arrived by boat from Europe days earlier, Fleming was emphatically a post-war traveller, revelling in the speed of air travel, having arrived in the Far East on a BOAC Comet that took twenty-six hours from London to Hong Kong via Zurich, Beirut, Bahrain, New Delhi and Bangkok armed with a £803 19s.

The Vesper Martini
The Vesper Martini "A dry martini," [Bond] said. "One. In a deep champagne goblet." "Oui, monsieur." "Just a moment. Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well, until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel. Got it?" "Certainly, monsieur." The barman seemed pleased with the idea. "Gosh, that's certainly a drink," said Leiter. Bond laughed. "When I'm...er...concentrating," he explained, "I never have more than one drink before dinner. But I do like that one to be large and very strong and very cold and very well made. I hate small portions of anything, particularly when they taste bad. This drink's my own invention. I'm going to patent it when I can think of a good name." —Ian Fleming, Casino Royale (1953), Chapter 7, "Rouge et Noir” Bond further comments to the barman, after taking a long sip, "Excellent ... but if you can get a vodka made with grain instead of potatoes, you will find it still better," and then he adds in an aside, "Mais n'enculons pas des mouches" (“But let's not bugger flies”—a vulgar French expression meaning "let's not split hairs"). One of the reasons Bond wanted his Vesper shaken well is that potato-based vodka is oily, and the ice agitation is thought to somehow remove much of the oiliness. But, of course, the only martini worth drinking is one with a thin skim of ice on the surface, which is only attainable with vigorous shaking.

Restorative Fiction in the Postwar Rebuilding of Britain: Ian Fleming's
Volume 13 Issue 1 – 2019 Restorative Fiction in the Postwar Rebuilding of Britain: Ian Fleming’s Casino Royale and Dr. No Kerry Henderson Western Sydney University Abstract After World War II, Great Britain experienced significant expansion following the devastation of war. Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels were popular during this time and I argue that they had a restorative effect in helping post-war Britons rebuild their nation and look towards a future that included many of the things that had been lost or destroyed by the war. This article defines and explains the concept of restorative fiction and applies it to Fleming’s novels Casino Royale (1953) and Dr No (1958). It compares Casino Royale and Dr. No with the so- called ‘kitchen sink’ dramas that were also popular, but which presented a less gritty, hopeless view of post-war Britain. While history tells us that Britain did not regain its position as a world power, the paper argues that Fleming’s novels helped Britons re-imagine that world and work towards its reconstruction. Introduction The long decade between 1953-1964 in which Ian Fleming wrote his James Bond novels, was for Britain a time of expansion, discovery, social change and rebuilding. The nation’s citizens again needed to work together and see themselves thriving in a democratic new world in which Britain regained some of its lost political, economic and military power. Literature was one important vehicle in establishing how Britons imagined themselves and their nation and helped create the post-war British identity. 1 In the aftermath of the war, Britons needed to re-create a strong nation with strong internal relationships that would allow them to collectively move forward.
