Casino Royale is even better than the film. High praise indeed but I preferred the way the story unfolded in print as one or two of the twists in the film did not take place that for me made a better tale... that's not to say that the casting of the film was not great, as the characters really do seem to fit with their portrayal on screen. The story itself is enthralling, and is read with a hushed urgency as you want to see what happens next. It's also made me want to play Baccarat! More than anything, it's annoyed me that I did not read these books earlier in life. After all, this where 007 started.Casino Royale
