Customer Reviews

Brokenclaw brings Bond to the 90's with a bang!!!

This one is good. VERY good! One of the best villians in a long time. Plot is a little twisted, but you don't notice two much. Final challenge is the best part of the book. Stunning!

Awsome! Best book EVER!

This is such a great book and i love it i baught it have reading it when i rented the book at the libary. Now i have read it 3 times and i am reading a 4 time write now. I never get sick of it! Broken Claw should be a movie! You have to read this book it is the BEST!

best bond book yet

maybe the best bond on print to date. wished they would make a movie of it. it keeps you clued to the page wondering whats going to happen next.. a must read... get if you can.

Great!

Brokenclaw is an excellent Bond novel, up there with Gardner's best (Icebreaker). "Brokenclaw" Lee is one of the better villians Gardner has created, and the ending is unbelieveably unique in pushing Bond to the limit. It really annoys me when people who don't understand the literary Bond pick up a book like this and cast it off as horrible because it doesn't correspond with the movies . . . . this is a great read if your really into Bond, it's Gardner at his best!

GARDNER'S BEST VILLAIN

STRONG WORK BY GARDNER WITH HIS BEST VILLAIN AND A GRITTY CONCLUSION REMINISCENT OF SOME OF FLEMING'S MOST SADISTIC SCENES. A VERY GOOD BEACH READ.
