Having already read and loved The Ian Fleming Files: Operation Armada, I'd been waiting for The Ian Fleming Files: Operation Parsifal by Damian Stevenson to come out. The author, an expert on Ian Fleming and James Bond also proves he is highly skilled at creating an impossible-to-put-down thriller.Bond creator, was actually Commander Ian Fleming in Great Britain's Naval Intelligence Department during WW II. He was known as intelligence officer '17F' and much of 007's adventures were based on Fleming's exploits. Stevenson has exhaustively researched the subject and it shows in the book's detail. The pages are so filled with tension and authentic action it feels like you're watching a movie, which is no surprise since Stevenson is also the screenwriter of the upcoming movie Fleming.Operation Parsifal is an exciting read as we find ourselves in the 1945 when 17F is placed in the odd position of finding a way to stop an assassination plot against Hitler. In true Bond style, Fleming is paired with a gorgeous. Their adventures, spy-gadgets and exotic locales are once again reminiscent of the best 007 flicks. But this fast-paced, edgy, well written book is so much fun you won't want to wait for the movie. It's a must read for Bond lover, or anyone who jus loves action, suspense, mystery and thrillers!
