Flamboyant red cropped hair, florid skin, eyes blazing with hate—
THIS IS THE FACE OF HUGO DRAX,
THE MYSTERY MAN BEHIND MOONRAKER.
A stranger, he came out of nowhere to build England the deadliest weapon ever devised by a human brain.
A maniacal genius, he now holds the life of secret agent JAMES BOND in his fiendishly clever hands!!
JAMES BOND has less than four days to discover the secret motive that is driving the mysterious HUGO DRAX to build MOONRAKER, the new super rocket that can blow the world sky high!!
Is he a national hero out to save the universe? Or a diabolical fiend bent on destruction? The answer must be found before the zero hour—an hour that is rapidly drawing closer and closer—when Moonraker will be finished and ready for use!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
One of Ian Fleming's most notable Bond novels, and one of the worst film adaptations of the series, the story of Sir Hugo Drax and his apocalyptic Moonraker missile program is revisited in this spirited reading by Simon Vance. With his classical yet smooth British dialect, Vance is more reminiscent of Timothy Dalton than any other Bond actor. His delivery is strong and commanding; Bond has never been more debonair than he is here. Vance creates compelling and realistic characters aside from the protagonist, leading to a thrilling listen that will captivate fans of the genre and newcomers alike as the film never could. A Penguin paperback.
