Summary: Not as Good as I expected
Comment: I reviewed this book first before I read it. I expected it to be awesomelike the others. However, it was not a worthy book of Benson's excellent Bond career. It seemed that Benson really slapped this book together without too much thought. I am a great fan of Benson's Bond books, and I have read them all. This was the worst of the bunch. It really felt like it was rushed and did not compare to Zero Minus Ten, the Facts of Death, High Time to Kill, or even his 2 movie novelizations. While it was enjoyable, it was very predictable and at times rediculous even without the insane gadgets that have been Benson's trademark in the series. I reccomend this book only to hardcore Bond fans who cannot bear to miss an installment in the series (like myself). I still look forward to the next Bond book which should conclude the Union saga. Again, get this book if you really are addicted to Bond. If you aren't, try reading some of his others.

Summary: Bond is Forever...
Comment: Before I get into the review, there is one book you need to read before Doubleshot. It's called "High Time To Kill". Doubleshot leaves off where HTTK leaves off....
James Bond has hit the skids. He's drinking to much, and is slowly losing his sanity. He feels that he must question his sanity b/c he has constant headaches, blackouts....and he just saw his double! Could Bond be that close to the edege? Or is this a very detailed plot by The Union to discredit our favorite spy? I suggest you get this book and find out.
Benson is a fantastic writer b/c he has the power to keep the reader glued to the book. If you're not a Bond fan, that's not a problem, b/c Benson has a way with word, and a [heck] of a plot. Now, if you're a Bond fan, then hold on for a wild ride. Everything we love about Bond, is in this book. The chases, fights, and ofcourse...the women. At one point Bond is talking to two women and tell them he works for a Import/Export company, "It's my job to make sure things go in and out smoothly." *LMAO* Only Bond can say something like that, and get away with it.
Do yourself a favor and get Doubleshot.

Summary: A good read, Bond is back to basics...
Comment: If you're a fan of the Bond that was charming, adventerous, action-packed, and a hit with the ladies then this book is for you. Once you start, you can't stop reading this.
