ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE James Bond, Book 11

Earphones Award Winner

by Ian Fleming | Read by David Tennant

Mystery & Suspense • 8 hrs. • Unabridged • © 1963

If you wonder why James Bond remains popular 61 years after his creation, listen to David Tennant’s narration of this work. In this eleventh in the series, Bond finds true love, battles the evil Blofeld, and skis down a Swiss Alp at night with villains chasing him. What more does one need? David Tennant, evidently. Though we should have known that portraying the tenth Doctor Who would prepare an actor for the 007 mantle, Tennant’s ease in playing everyone from the suave British spy to a Sicilian mobster, Eastern European thugs, and five women (four English and one Russian) boggles the ear. Add a pleasant up-tempo delivery of the narrative and attuned pacing (whiz-bang in a fight, seductive in bed)—and it’s “Bond, James Bond.” A.C.S.
