From Russia With Love by Ian Fleming

Being a Fleming book, there are a few opportunities he takes to insult broad groups of people (in this one he concentrates on patronising women and treating everyone in Eastern Europe like some sort of terrible sub-species) but that aside, this is an excellent book. The story is engrossing (featuring relatively little of Bond), exciting, expertly told and with an intriguing ending. It’s no wonder that this made one of the better films too.
