BOND TAKES ON A DEATH-DEFYING NEW MISSION TO SECURE KEY JAPANESE INTELLIGENCE

James Bond is shattered by the murder of his wife at the hands of Ernst Stavro Blofeld, and only the prospect of a particularly challenging mission can draw him out of his deep depression.

Determined to restore 007 to his former effectiveness, M sends Bond to Japan, where a criminal mastermind is using a poisonous garden inside a rocky island fortress to lure people to their deaths. Bond will have to infiltrate and destroy this mysterious ""Castle of Death"" in exchange for top secret Japanese intelligence.

When the mastermind behind the deadly plot proves to be an old and terrifying enemy, 007 will have to use all of his skills in a fight to the death.

Decent story but the silly voices used for the Japanese speakers just gets too annoying

Weird Japanese voices ruins it

I been reading Fleming’s Bond since I sneaked my father’s copies. I been listening to the audio versions but cannot bear hysteric impersonations of dramatic scenes by low talented female performers. Find a good brit accented narrator that can do justice to this masculine hero. Male. Listen to the Sharpe series, now thats a talented narrator, Take the advice do a make over of the series. Listeners skip this version.

Whats up with women narrating Bond?

Performers who performed were the nationality of the role! Also an excellent James Bond actor also!

Very fun exciting performance!

This is my least favorite James Bond book. There was too much irrelevant information about Japanese culture and customs. The list of poisonous plants in the “Garden of Death” was mind numbing. However, the second half of the book was vintage James Bond, and the “cliffhanger”ending made me rush to my book shelf for the next story in the series.

Too Much Unnecessary Information
