For incredible suspense, unexpected thrills, and extraordinary danger, nothing can beat James Bond in his inaugural adventure.\u003c\/p\u003e\nThe Denver Post\n\u003cp\u003eHere Bond is not the charming, witty sophisticate that Sean Connery, Roger Moore and other actors have made him. \u003ci\u003eCasino Royale\u003c\/i\u003e is noticeably lacking in humor, and Bond is equally noticeably cold and ruthless, yet at the same time a romantic susceptible to love's pangs. In fact, the novel is as much a love story - with a sad ending - as an espionage thriller. — \u003ci\u003eRoger K.
