Blood Fever: a James Bond Adventureby Charlie Higson
Evidently, James Bond's adventures didn't start when he was an adult. As a schoolboy, first in SilverFin: a James Bond Adventure (the first in the The Young Bond series) and now in this title, he has an unerring ability to get himself into life-threatening situations, solve mysteries and still live to fight another day.
This time his adventure begins at Eton and quickly moves to Sardinia where the real action takes place. It seems James has stumbled upon a secret Italian society whose members are involved in stolen art, kidnapping and murder. Along the way, he meets new friends, performs daring feats, narrowly escapes a horrible death, and stops an insane villain. This fast-paced entry in the series is far better than the previous offering SilverFin. A fun and engrossing read. Grades 6 to 10.
