Anyone read the book Pistache by Faulks? Read somewhere that it included a Fleming/Bond short story parody or something like that? Is this true?

Thanks! Have to look out for that book.
Btw, how long is it? Short, very short or damn short?

A fun (if unfortunately very short) read. Recommended.

Recieved the book last week and as you said it's damn short but I still had a laugh reading it. Still a nice catch. :tup:
