  <default_description>&lt;i&gt;Devil May Care&lt;/i&gt; is the newest installment in the iconic James Bond series. The book will be released worldwide on Ian Fleming&amp;#8217;s birthday, May 28. Written by novelist Sebastian Faulks, &lt;i&gt;Devil May Care&lt;/i&gt; is set in the cold war, picking up where Fleming left off in 1966 with &lt;i&gt;Octopussy&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Living Daylights&lt;/i&gt;. Faulks, writing as Ian Fleming, has created the perfect continuation of the James Bond legacy. &lt;i&gt;Devil May Care&lt;/i&gt; features all the glamour, thrills, and excitement that one would expect from any adventure involving Bond . . . James Bond.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[A bit more than ok, but flawed. I got the twist before Bond did (at least I knew things weren't what they seemed) and I really felt that he'd have been dead long before Faulks got to him if he couldn't spot the obvious.<br/>That being said, I loved the trick of having a villan who could say so many...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66969540">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The idea of setting a James Bond book in 1967, a year after the last book was published, was an inspired one. And the first third of Devil May Care recalls not so much Ian Fleming as the old Bond movies. Great. But the book goes on to crib from the things from the Bond films that fans like me would ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/54358173">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is an Official James Bond novel and it's harmless enough. Very formulaic — Sebastian Faulks creates an Evil Genius (with Weird Defect) and an Evil Henchman of Sinister Ethnic Origin, and sets up an early Battle of Wits (a tennis match in which the Evil Genius cheats but Bond beats him anyway,...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/42208975">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A pretty good romp in the Bond tradition. Faulks said following Fleming's lead he churned out 2000 words a day for 6 weeks, but abstained from the cocktails that fueled the original works. A pity, as Devil May Care could have benefited from a little less restraint. Good summer fun though.]]></body>
