Overall I thought it was a great effort on the part of the author.

The artwork is excellent, this is the way I imagined James Bond to be when I was reading the Ian Fleming novels.

Tom Hazzard is aging slowly, about one year for every ten of a regular human. He has lived for centuries, known Shakespeare, sailed with Captain Cook and fell in love.

I enjoyed this book very much, it is smart, fast, and entertaining.

Ms. Baites created an interesting narrative, combining it with informative information and fascinating characters

James Bond: Black Box by Benjamin Percy (art by Rapha Lobosco) is a solid entry into Dynamite’s Bond library even though the plot is weak and predictable, but well written

The novel is not unreadable, it is enjoyable for the Bond fans, but it is far from being one of the best in the series

I truly enjoyed Ms. Mantel’s writing, it is sharp, distinct and lively.

The story was written after the film Dr. No was released, literary 007 gotten some of cinematic Bond’s persona.
