A review by lokster71
Thunderball by Ian Fleming

4.0

Thunderball would be a pretty straightforward thriller if it wasn't for the invention of SPECTRE and Blofeld, which adds a certain spice. Even if they're just there to be beaten by Bond they way they're introduced is nicely done.

In your mind's eye you can see this playing out in a Bond film.

It's well-crafted. It has one of the more interesting Bond girls in Domino whose courage can't be doubted.

There's not a lot else I have to add really. It's fine and functional. It's nowhere near being the best of the series and I like Bond's attitude to making your own mind up about people. I like his thoughts on women driver's less.
