Octopussy & The Living Daylights By Ian Fleming
Hello dear listeners!
A tremendously important, teardrop worthy chapter in the podcast’s history comes to an end. That’s right, this week we hit the books to discuss, for the very last time, an Ian Fleming written James Bond volume, Octopussy and The Living Daylights, published posthumously. There are several reasons why this episode proves bittersweet. First, and most obviously, the hosts won’t be reviewing anymore Fleming Bond! Second, this new collection of short stories, the second Fleming wrote after For Your Eyes Only, is comparatively short, forcing the hosts to spend as much time as they can on it, which isn’t that much ultimately. Third, hmm, third…is it really that good at all? Might Fleming has possibly left us with a wet noodle?
Get some scrambled eggs ready, some black coffee, and tag along one more time as we delve into the OG’s version of James Bond 007!
