Trae Stratton’s Reviews > “The Spy Who Loved Me” [Movie Tie-In] > Status Update

This was my favorite Bond movie as a kid, and I was very surprised to learn it actually had a novelization beyond the source material. All the movie tie-ins I have read so far have been routinely bland, and so I wasn’t expecting much. Wow! I am shocked by the latitude granted for this- the added character depth and visceral tone of the first twenty pages have been eyeopening.
