I had a lot of fun with this. I was a bit hesitant to re read as from my memory this was sort of a Live and Let Die part two, with a similar and slightly worse plot.
The settings are obviously similar, and it doesn't help that I always get the names Solitaire and Domino confused in my head, but I thought this book was an engaging and well paced addition to the series. Some great moments with Felix, which I always enjoy, a fairly compelling Bond girl, for the time, and an interesting internal conflict for Bond. Fun!
