Beyond Bond: Spies in Fiction and Film
An ambitious survey of spy fiction, the scope of this book is much too broad, as the author attempts to discuss the development of the espionage genre over the past century in both British and American literature, film, and television. Such a wide focus leaves little room for any in-depth consideration of texts. Because the author only glosses each text, the content would be better structured as an encyclopedia with a concise entry for each item. More problematic are the many factual errors throughout the book, which undermine credibility.
