"Young Bond Book Reviews"- Akash Kumar's Reviews
"By Royal Command"- Ages 14 and up~ only in UK~ James Bond has to stop a communist plot, and falls in love with a 17 year old maid.
"By Royal Command" is a very enthralling conclusion to the "Young Bond" series. It becomes action packed in the middle and the end. The love story within it is carried intelligently, and not too gushy-mushy. The maid is Roan Powers. James is attracted to her at first sight. Since it is told in James's view, teenage boys can easily connect with him. The book is serious throughout. The plot is too mature for kids under 14. I myself had to research a bit about King George. James Bond loses his innocence in this one, and since he is lovesick, "he runs slowly, so the pace is slow." This book reminds me of the serious "Quantum of Solace". This book is by far one of the best conclusions yet.
