They exist solely to spout dialog and propel the cheesy story forward. The characters are all completely one-dimensional. The story is extremely bare-bones and barely coherent. I don’t even know where to begin when describing how laughably bad the Casino Royale book is. …holy shit this book is fucking terrible! It was the first James Bond novel! It was going to be awesome! I sat down to read, and… There was no way I was going to dislike this book. There have been countless imitators since then, but there is only one James Bond. He pretty much made the espionage genre of literature and films popular with this single work. It was written by Ian Fleming and published in 1953. The first book in the James Bond series is Casino Royale. Going in chronological order made sense, so I figured I’d start at the beginning. Since I’m illiterate I had never read any of the books, but I figured, what the hell, I should give one of them a try. The successful franchise is based on a series of popular books. I have watched them all, own them all, and eagerly anticipate the release of each new movie. In case it wasn’t already known, I am a huge fan of the James Bond film series. Just because the source material is a book doesn’t mean the book is not a huge steaming pile of shit. Every time a movie comes out that’s based on a book, people always shout, “LOL BUT TEH BOOK WAS SOOO MUCH BETTER LOL!” Well, sometimes the movie can be better than the source material.
