Bond. Is. Back.
It’s 1969, and, having just celebrated his forty-fifth birthday, James Bond—British special agent 007—is summoned to headquarters to receive an unusual assignment. Zanzarim, a troubled West African nation, is being ravaged by a bitter civil war, and M directs Bond to quash the rebels threatening the established regime.
Bond’s arrival in Africa marks the start of a feverish mission to discover the forces behind this brutal war—and he soon realizes the situation is far from straightforward. Piece by piece, Bond uncovers the real cause of the violence in Zanzarim, revealing a twisting conspiracy that extends further than he ever imagined.
Moving from rebel battlefields in West Africa to the closed doors of intelligence offices in London and Washington, this novel is at once a gripping thriller, a tensely plotted story full of memorable characters and breathtaking twists, and a masterful study of power and how it’s wielded—a brilliant addition to the James Bond canon.

En medelålders Bond hamnar i ett inbördeskrig i ett västafrikanskt land i slutet på 60-talet. Spännande och skriven på ett "Ian Flemingskt" vis. Författaren har gjort sin research. Tydligt att inbördeskriget som skildras bygger på det verkliga Biafrakriget. En av karaktärerna som Bond möter har tydliga drag av den svenske flygaren Carl Gustaf von Rosen som i verkligheten hjälpte till att bygga upp ett litet flygvapen åt utbrytarrepubliken Biafra.

The politics of this story are interesting and still relevant in today's world. Narration is great but as a 007 story it is a bit lame
