Thunderball FROM THE PUBLISHER
When a stranger arrives in the Bahamas, the locals barely turn their heads, seeing another ex-pat with money to burn at the casino tables. But James Bond has more than money on his mind; he's got less than a week to find two stolen atom bombs hidden among the coral reefs. While acting the playboy, Bond meets Domino, sultry plaything of secretive treasure hunter Emilio Largo. In getting close to this gorgeous Italian girl, Bond hopes to learn more about Largo's hidden operation.

Dating from 1960, 1954, and 1961, these James Bond novels feature all the standard trappings for the series: master criminals, beautiful damsels in distress, and plenty of action-essentially everything fans have come to associate with 007. Though a bit dated, the Bond outings are still fun reads-great beach books-and the character is still immensely popular on screen, so these are well worth having.

David Rintoul's British accent provides a heart-pounding, adrenaline-pumping rendition of Ian Fleming's classic. Rintoul's vocal depictions develop each character flawlessly. His breathless excitement is contagious. Beautiful women and Bahamian scenery are successfully created in your mind's eye. Movie comparisons to a 007 story are inevitable. However, the unabridged version allows the full development of key characters in the story not achieved in the movie. True Bond fans will look forward to more audio adventures.
