Description


Is this the end for Agent 007?


Bond, a shattered man after the death of his wife at the hands of SPECTRE founder Ernst Stavro Blofeld, has gone to pieces as an agent, endangering himself and his fellow operatives. M, unwilling to accept the loss of one of his best men, sends 007 to Japan for one last, near-impossible mission with the hopes of bolstering his spirits. But Japan proves to be Bond's downfall, leading him to a mysterious residence known as the "Castle of Death," where he encounters an old enemy revitalized. All the omens suggest that this is the end for the British agent and, for once, Bond himself seems unable to disagree.

      • content: YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE is a departure from the more familiar James Bond installments; in this one Fleming gives Bond a bit more character development. And no matter how dated the material, with its references to President Kennedy, Khrushchev, and the Cold War, the plot stands the test of time and never fails to deliver pure entertainment. Robert Whitfield carries the exact measure of British inflection while delivering the famous Bond "off-the-cuff" humor. He deftly transforms the precise narrative and dialogue into the distinctive characters of the Japanese Tiger Tanaka, the Aussie Dikko Henderson, and Bond's nemesis, the German Blofeld. Whitfield IS James Bond. M.F.D. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine

      • content: Legions of Ian Fleming fans who debate the comparative merits of different portrayers of James Bond have a new contender. Narrator Martin Jarvis is every bit as suave and forceful as any movie actor--better even than Sean Connery because he can play every character. Here, a depressed 007, emotionally undone by the murder of his wife, is sent to Japan to convince the chief of the Japanese secret service to ally himself with England. Jarvis's acting chops are on full display as Bond's mood gradually lifts and he alternately charms and battles an international cast, all of whom sound precisely as you hoped they would. This is pure entertainment, perfectly done. A.C.S. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine
