Solo (James Bond) - Tapa blanda

"Nearly a century on, Boyd proves that there are plenty of pages left in 007's passport. I doubt his creator could have done it better."--Olen Steinhauer, "The New York Times Book Review"

""Solo" never fails to keep the reader on the edge of his chair. . . . Boyd is a brilliant storyteller and the interwoven plots and surprises of "Solo" are often superior to Fleming's own narrative stunts."--"The Daily Beast"

""Solo" includes faint echoes of Joseph Conrad, whose stories of adventure, intrigue and espionage are deeply infused with a sense of moral inquiry and consequence. . . . A Bond novel but also a Boyd one, with richer and deeper concerns coursing alongside the Flemingesque flourishes that should keep fans satisfied, as well."--"The Washington Post"

"Solo" never fails to keep the reader on the edge of his chair. . . . Boyd is a brilliant storyteller and the interwoven plots and surprises of "Solo" are often superior to Fleming s own narrative stunts. --"The Daily Beast""

A light, slick, sinuous adventure. . . . Though Boyd s iteration of the character owes something to Graham Greene s moral melancholy, Fleming s Bond remains recognizable. So does the excellent pacing: "Solo" feels so quick that it could already be a movie. --"USA Today""

Boyd brings back the real Bond, triumphantly. . . . A formidable literary achievement. . . . It succeeds wonderfully. --"The Daily Mail""

William Boyd understands his man very well. . . . This is Bond done right. --"The Atlantic""

Boyd has immersed himself in the character, the author and his oeuvre and come up with an adventure that s triumphantly the equal of the great Bond adventures. . . . A brilliant imitation that s occasionally superior to the prototype. --Robert McCrum, "The Guardian""

A perfectly judged narrative tempo . . . . The action is expertly plotted. . . . "Solo" s true literary craft lies in the subtlety of its correspondences and also the suspenseful quality that keeps us on our toes until the closing pages. Mission accomplished. --"The Financial Times""

Breathtaking. . . . Boyd manages to enrich and refresh a character we thought we knew too well. . . . A terrific twisting thriller. . . . A tremendous Bond story. --"The Sunday Times""
