After reading my first Desmond Cory book "Dead Man Falling" I decided to read all his novels. Here's my review of "Secret Ministry", the first of Cory's Johnny Fedora book. It was first published in 1951 now the 60th edition.In this book, Johnny Fedora has his first assignment. He has similar characteristics to James Bond but outshines him: the secret agent`s persuasiveness but indulgences, his sexiness but a woman chaser, his craft being a spy but his knack for violence.The story brings us to the time when Germany is defeated however a bunch of Hitler's bad guys live on and are hiding out in London. Fedora's assignment is to find and get rid of them.Cory really knows how to get his readers engaged with his characters.I read all Cory`s books this week in like a Johnny Fedora read marathon and now I`m a big Desmond Cory`s fan.
