Just to let you know, Freemo passed on it ;D It was a third impression btw. I went to the same bookstore with Freemo this morning. Picked up some old paperbacks, including Colonel Sun. Should be a good read with Bond 20 in mind.
The torture scene is pretty cool,

I wish I had some good old bookshops hidden around here - what a great place they'd be to find hidden Bond book treasures!
Dave, i have found all my books some rare from Charity shops , jumble sales, car boot fairs and school fetes. Old bookshop are normally the last resort not the first.

I used to do exactly the same thing, Blue Eyes. I had a regular cycle of bookstores all around LA and the valley. Nothing like making a surprise discovery. I remember when I found a copy of Colonel Sun...it was before I even knew such a book exsisted. A Bond book that wasn't written by Fleming? I can't tell how long I sat looking it over, trying to determine if it was REALLY a Bond book.Blue Eyes (31 Jan, 2002 08:34 p.m.):
I'm actually going to list a pile of second hand book shops and look them all up one day. Run around mad finding Bond stuff ;D

Car boot sales often the best bet; bought the whole series of still life Pan paperbacks at one for

I've found many an interesting book, not just Bond, selling way below their deserved market value.
I found a first edition paperback of O. F. Snelling's "007 James Bond: A Report" and Sheldon Lane's "For Bond Lovers Only" this way for peanuts.
In a kind way, "ignorance is bliss". Their ignorance is my bliss.
