DoubleShot
(Hodder & Stoughton, Putnam; 2000)
"Benson’s
faithful manipulation of Fleming’s boilerplate
formula will have Bond fans cheering as 007 and
the sexy twins race to save the day..."
(Publishers Weekly, USA)
"The
difficult part for a writer of 007 tales is coming
up with new villains, new plots, and new settings.
What makes Benson a good writer is that he is willing
to stretch the character to make things interesting.
In his hands, Bond is more than a robot and deeper
than the cardboard cutout that populates the films."
(Marin Independent Journal, USA)
"Benson's new books are real vintage 007."
(Peterborough Evening Telegraph, UK)
"The usual edge-of-your-seat danger story...will delight every Bond fan."
(South Thames Newspapers, UK)
"Benson's Bond books are much more in the style of the originals."
(Glasgow Evening Times, UK)
