I read Colonel Sun and Ice-Breaker (for the first time) during my days in the sun, and can honestly say, Midas Gold would give them a good run any day.
Well done Harry, chat soon
cheers

You really had me worried.
When I put Bond into a "situation" its always different from other characters because Bond cant die (its the rules)
But your plot, was able to put him in a different type of danger, where the outcome was somewhat terrifying.
I can now "unclench" go go for dinner.

The action in Chapter Twelve is good, fast-moving and brutal, but I actually prefer your Chapter Thirteen. The shifts in focus, from Faulkes' perspective on the combat, to Bond and Ysabelle's interrogation (shown from their separate viewpoints), to the reintroduction of young James, have all been handled very well. This shift between settings, characters, and points of view is more easily done on film; it's more difficult to cut back and forth within the structure of a single written chapter, and it's been well handled. As before, your portrayal of Nakamuro is very effective.
Looking forward to the final chapters!

There comes a time in everyman's life when he reaches the end of his long and winding road; where all his ‘escape routes’ are coldly and remorselessly closed off and death closes in upon him with that cold and pitiless smile on her white face...
That is the moment of absolute confrontation and the one moment of complete and utter definition of man’s character.
How we face that death defines who and what we are, how we lived and how ultimately we will die...
Such a time for James Bond is almost upon him and although there are certain 'rules' when it comes to the incredible world of Ian Fleming's masterspy, I warn those who have joined me throughout my own personal view of his world that I have my own set of rules: that of having none!
So, gentle reader, if you intend to continue finishing this violent tale, allow me to warn you:
Expect the unexpected!
Is that giving the game away?
No, I think not.

JAMES BOND IN HIS DEADLIEST ASSIGNMENT EVER
HARRYFAWKES’
MIDASGOLD
Bond drank some of his Scotch.
‘Information, sir?’ he asked.
‘One of Nakamuro’s shipments of drugs will be leaving Italy sometime next month,’ M told him and puffed on his pipe. ‘Destination UK.’
‘I see.’
‘Now Sir Raymond Valance has asked for my help and I’ve accepted.’ M told him. ‘I want you to locate and stop that shipment from reaching its destination. Simple as that. I know its run-of-the-mill stuff, but until the Switzerland affair is over I want you out of JIC’s way. Clear?’
Bond nodded.
‘I trust Grazianizi will give me the relevant details when I get there.’
‘He’s already been informed you’ll be on the job.’
‘When do I leave?’
M looked sternly across at Bond.
‘Hope you haven’t made any plans for this week-end, James.’
‘As a matter of fact, sir, I haven’t.’
The race against the clock has begun.
Betrayal, conspiracies, murder and high adventure.
JAMES BOND IS BACK!
One of the most sadistic villains to ever grace the pages of Fan Fiction is seeking to plague the United Kingdom and Europe with over half a billion dollars worth of a new designer drug simply called KOGANE - GOLD.
How he’s going to smuggle it in is a mystery that has the major international Security Services baffled and up in arms.
‘I can assure you, gentlemen, that ‘GOLDMINE’ is foolproof. You need a supply and distribution badly and my organisation can handle that fully. At this moment in time though, how I get it to your sellers in the UK and mainland Europe will have to remain my business. Having said that, you have my word that I can and will deliver.’
James Bond finds a willing accomplice in the shape of a beautiful Roman called Ysabelle Valentina and with her help he embarks on a game of death to get to the heart of one of his most dangerous adversaries’ operation – a man with the devil’s eyes and the touch of death.
JAMES BOND IS BACK IN HIS ULTIMATE ADVENTURE
From the icy mountains and freezing cold of Switzerland to the beautiful and eternal city of Rome, Ian Fleming’s masterspy finds himself reeling and at the mercy of the man called Shiseido Kogane – Midas Gold – and with each revelation comes another twist, another turn in the plot, which will leave the reader simply breathless!
Exciting, fast-paced and sadistically sexy
Harry Fawkes is at his best!

One year continuously on the go to finish it by New Years day 2010. And by Odin's eye I will, and that's a fact.
It's been nice building up this story and guiding Mr. Bond through all the sticky situations I came up with to test the bastard. Oh, I know, I know, I'm just playing here. But what a game! Pretending to be a first class author commissioned to continue the Bond series.
Fantastic!
And where else if not CBn.
Four Fan Fic novels. Four Bond stories that have satisfied the hell out of me. Putting them together was a feat, to say the least. Scene after scene, danger after danger. The 'oh, ' moments where you hit your head against the wall 'cause you've put Bond in a situation that is too complicated to get him out, let alone contemplate it. Arrgh! how many times I've tossed and turned at night playing those scenes in my head.
To be truthful though it was bloody worth it though. Damn, it was worth it. I rather like Midas Gold the best out of them. Don't know why. The thing came naturally somehow more than the others.
Now I know it's just fan fiction and no one is going to sue me for either plagiarism or copyright infringement or whatever the hell it's called because that would be taking it too seriously, but heck, I'm sure you'll all agree that the effort was good and that given an expert hand, who knows the story itself could, just could, be up there with the other official Bond stories. I don't write or try to write in Fleming's style, mind (I wouldn't know how even if I wanted to). But my hero is the great John Gardner and the way he went about his Bond novels.
Anyway, all this is down to too much bubbly this evening so please don't take any notice of me.
Luv ya loads and just to keep the pace up here's a little teaser for your eyes only:
Love and kisses a very drunk Harry Fawkes

Your four novels all flow nicely and I haven't found any of the situations to feel contrived, he gets in and out of trouble in believable ways. Keep up the good work, I, for one, enjoy the hell out of them!

Keep up the good work, Harry - I look forward to the wrap-up when you get done partying.
#176
Posted 03 January 2010 - 12:21 PM
It wasn't due to the partying (although I must say party I did - and heck what a party!).
No.
The main reason was I wanted to give something that was worthy of your readership:) That's right.
I wanted to come up with something that would really have you clinging onto the edge of your seats; and strictly speaking I really believe I have come up with the goods.
The ending I had actually written was good, but being in the army and all, I wanted it better!
Primarily I wanted to up the action and emotion slightly, which my original draft lacked to tell you the truth.
Obviously this is all subjective in that to me it is good enough to post.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it though. I have a knack for these things.
So, brace yourselves gentle readers, for the ultimate chapter of MIDASGOLD. I guarantee it'll blast you right out of your seats...
Oh and by the way: Happy, happy New Year.
