#2 Thunderball by Ian Fleming, Jason Isaacs (Narrator)

I’m listening to the audios of this series out of order and it was a bit jarring to hear how Bond had changed from the first book. The book starts with him being sent to a wellness clinic because M says he needs to be at top peak fitness, surprising this does have some bearing on the book later on when he goes to the Bahamas on assignment when a plane goes missing with nuclear bombs aboard and the world is being blackmailed. I liked this one more than Casino Royal, but things were a bit jarring listening to the audio as the book goes into the history of a type of cigarette and various other meanderings in the story. I’ll pick up another one for the next car trip with my husband.
