Ian Fleming's Dr No- The James Bond Book Club

The James Bond Book Club is back! This is the series where we discuss each Ian Fleming James Bond novel as if we are in the year of publication.

Today it's the turn of Quarrel, Strangeways, HoneyChile Rider, and a fiend called Dr No!

What is the Spybrary James Bond Book Club exactly and what makes it different from other 007 book clubs?

On the James Bond Book Club, we get in our time machine and go back to the year of publication. We dissect each of the Ian Fleming 007 novels in order and include themes such as :

1) Discussing the timing of each book. The year in which it was written. The zeitgeist of that time. Key historic and cultural events.
2) Background to the plot and any links to Fleming's personal experiences.
3) The U.K.'s first edition cover art.
4) The plot.
5) Locations
6) Bond's character development.
7) The Villain.
8) La femme fatale.
9) The supporting cast.
10) The branding.
11) Key set pieces and the best chapters.
12) Critical reception

We will not be referring to or discussing the 007 movies.

We will only be referencing previous books rather than those published in the future - as if we are experiencing the work of Fleming for the first time.
