Casino Royale 007 James Bond [Full Audiobook]

In the novel that introduced James Bond to the world, Ian Fleming’s agent 007 is dispatched to a French casino in Royale-les-Eaux. His mission? Bankrupt a ruthless Russian agent who’s been on a bad luck streak at the baccarat table.

One of SMERSH’s most deadly operatives, the man known only as “Le Chiffre,” has been a prime target of the British Secret Service for years. If Bond can wipe out his bankroll, Le Chiffre will likely be “retired” by his paymasters in Moscow. But what if the cards won’t cooperate? After a brutal night at the gaming tables, Bond soon finds himself dodging would-be assassins, fighting off brutal torturers, and going all-in to save the life of his beautiful female counterpart, Vesper Lynd.

Taut, tense, and effortlessly stylish, Ian Fleming’s inaugural James Bond adventure has all the hallmarks that made the series a touchstone for a generation of readers.

I love how fleming will describe something in a visceral way you've probably never thought of before but somehow it intuitively makes perfect sense.

[gapotter]

A huge thank you for all these audio books. I never tire of the stories or the writing style. These are timeless

[wattstudio]

I read the original Fleming novels all the way through every few years. Love them. Love the fact that Fleming teaches the reader the rule of Baccarat 1:37:00. The reading by Simon Vance is perfect

[RabiddRabitt]

This is my first listen to any of these books. I'm hooked.

[thewolfmanhulk]

Thank you for posting this audiobook. For me, as a person with an interest in the Author and his own clandestine work during WW2 it was interesting to get into the mind of the creator of JB through his storytelling.

The real James Bond is not Daniel Craig, Roger Moore, or even Sean Connery. It's the James Bond of the original Ian Fleming novels: the cold blooded, very plausible assassin with the dark rather cruel face, and black hair with the drooping strands over the eye...

[OldStreetDoc]

Fleming gave us truly the quintessential ‘spy novel’. With a deeply flawed & complicated character in Bond. I wasn’t a fan of the decision when Daniel Craig was cast, but I was quite wrong. All of the actors brought different characteristics to their portrayal, but Craig in my opinion proved to be closer to the Bond I knew of the books than the others. Especially in terms of the darkness within Bond. Brosnan & of course Connery did as well only slightly lesser so.

[blackbirdriver]

I came here because after 3 days of covid bedrest I was getting tired of my other books and wanted an easy listening experience. Now I'm happy to find a very well written story, with a high level of intelligence in the observations. Except for the female Charakters. Eva Green's Vesper in the movie is so much more interesting.

[CH-ukil]

1953 happened, the very first James Bond book is published, and the rest is history.

[lolunknown]

So very sad on how Bond realized for once, that he loved a woman- only to throw it all away because she had betrayed him, his country, and millions of other agents.

His last words stuck a thorn in me

[jameswilliams]

I would like someone to make miniseries of the Bond books set in the original period using Ian Fleming stories as well as the VanLustbader and Gardner works.

[ramencurry]

Incredible voice. That how I sound when I talk

[li-limandragon]

Kinda missed the parkour action scene in Madagascar but baccarat is fun too.
