Rating: - Slow, boring in places.
Please dont let him write another. Great Britain has the worlds greatest authors.
Anthony Horowitz; Alex Rider, Jason Steed, Ravens Gate, Necropolis.
Joe Craig: Jimmy Coates.
Robert Muchamore: Cherub.
All three authors have proved themselves as being the best teen spy writers not only in the country but the world.
Joe Craig who brought us Jimmy Coates is also the couson of James Bond Actor Daniel Crag.
Yet we have comedian Charlie Higson and part time author writing ... Read More
Rating: - A Fantastic end to a Brilliant Series
This book was thoroughly enjoyable to read, and after reading all of the previous of the Young Bond series this was no worse than the others. I can't say it was any better as they are simply amazing page turners which have you going for 'just one more chapter'. I read both (young) James Bond and Alex Rider and the two are both superb.
This is worth the pennies, so go and get it NOW! If you haven't read the first 4, do that!
100% great.
Rating: - A let down. Ok its alright but it out classed
A huge let down. This was Ok, thats all. Boring in a few places, typical in the next. James falls in love this time and acts way out of character compared to the other James Bond books. I am sorry to say the worst of Young James Bond.
Alex Rider author Anthony Horowitz and Jimmy Coates author Joe Craig, Twilight Author Stephene Meyers and Jason Steed author Mark Cooper know how to write about teenagers, love and spys.
Charlie Higson has the ground work done by Ian Flemming yet he does not use ... Read More
Rating: - A little slow
Not what I thought it would be. very slow, going on and on about facts not required, It seems the author is trying very hard to get a film made of the series, giving details of music ect as someone is killed and lots of non-requored details. The ending was good, but Charlie Higson sems to lack the skill of Ian Flemming or Anthony Horowitz.
Rating: - A Satisfying end to a surprisingly good series
So we come to a close to the 'young bond' series, which i have to admit was far better than i expected it to be. Praise to Charlie Higson for handling the task emmensly well and for creating a very entertaining series. 'By Royal Command' is the final book in the series and this is the fifth time James Bond, a fourteen year old kid, has managed to get in to some mad far fetched adventure invovlving spies and this time round the prince of whales. So you have to completly abondon any plausability factor and ... Read More
