An Eton boy's family disappear at sea. James uncovers a shadowy society operating in a hidden corner of the school. And far from England, in the bandit-infested interior of Sardina, a sinster Italian count has built himself a mountain fortress. Is there a connection?
Review -
Blood Fever is the second book of the Young Bond series and is my favourite one! Count Ugo Carnifex, is a true Bond villain with an elaborate lair and scheme reflecting every inch of his megalomania. There are flashes of the 007 agent in James as he coolly defies the Count, finds allies that are bandits, and gets an adrenaline buzz by diving off high cliffs and driving fast cars. But the best part of the book is the whole scene with James being tortured with the deadliest animal in the world: mosquitoes.
Verdict - 5 out of 5.
