TRIGGER MORTIS A James Bond Novel, with Original Material by Ian Fleming

Actor David Oyelowo brings a magical performance rich with gravitas to this James Bond audiobook. His accents are excellent, and the characters are an extremely varied lot: a Korean psychopath, a Russian race-car driver, Americans, and, of course, the British Bond—James Bond. But Oyelowo goes further, shifting from methodical pacing to heart-pounding, breathless descriptions at just the right moments—for example, when portraying Bond’s thought processes during a crucial race. The production ends with the author’s discussion of his research for the book. M.B. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2015]
