The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments! 

Bond moved slowly along the full of the pleasure yacht until he found the wide hatch he was looking for. He pressed the switch of the Geiger counter and held the machine against the steel plates. It registered only a fraction of what he expected. Disappointed at the innocence of the hull, he turned to swim away before his air bubbles betrayed him to the watch posted topside.

The clang against his ear and the sharp impact against his left shoulder were simultaneous. Bond sprang aside. Below him a man, his black rubber suit glinting in the light, pedaled furiously in the depths, thrusting another spear down the barrel of the CO gun. Bond twisted and dove. Grappling together, the two men slashed with their knives and pulled at each other's air hoses, both desperate in the knowledge that only death to one would bring safety to the other.

THUNDERBALL is an incredible adventure, one which finds James Bond tackling SPECTRE. Operating in the Gulf Stream, this daring crime ring has perpetrated the most arrogant blackmail demand ever attempted: three hundred million dollars from the United States and England... or else!
