Von Lehrer Lämpel
Format:Taschenbuch
Vom vorigen Abenteuer noch nicht ganz gesundet, erholt sich James Bond zusammen mit seiner Tante Charmian in Mexiko. Während seine Tante sich auf Exkursion zu alten Aztekenstätten begibt, beginnt für James Bond die stürmischste Zeit seines Lebens. Schon auf der Anreise droht ein Monster-Sturm die beiden einzuholen und fegt brachial über die kleine Küstenstadt hinweg. Bond wäre nicht James Bond, wenn das die einzige unerwartete Überraschung bliebe. Verfolger und Verfolgter zugleich bleibt James auch im tiefsten Urwald nicht alleine. Von der ersten bis zur letzten Seite Schlag auf Schlag der bisher actionreichste aber auch blutrünstigste Band der Young Bond-Reihe.

The book is very fast-paced, with the action never stopping. Literally. This book is an adrenaline rush, the violence level very intense. The story is reminiscent of like a video game,because Bond is on a very DANGEROUS "scavenger hunt" this time. This book is like Young Bond himself, running fast to only stop in the end. The new villain; El Huracan; is not in this that much, but he is definitely a Bond Villain! Precious Stone was annoying at first, but she was alright later. JJ must be a cute boy. Every other characters were well explained, and Manny the Girl (the one on the cover with a gun)was AWESOME!!!
I ordered By Royal Command from the UK first (I wanted the US Hurricane Gold instead, so I didn't get the UK one). It was epic, slow, but the story was top-notch. A love-action story dealing with communism. But "Hurricane Gold" is just classic Bond! I read it in one day. It will be hard for kids 10-15, since of the fast paced pages, difficult plot points, and descriptions. I thought that it has complicated plot points, but it's nothing compared to Double or Die. I would recommend this book to kids 13+.
Get it, even though the story is like "Alex Rider: Skeleton Key"!

I started reading James Bond when JFK recommended Ian Fleming as one of his favorites. I have not missed a one since. This is a good read, maybe my favorite of the Young Bond series.

Hurricane Gold is a superb book about the young days of James Bond. He is a fourteen your old in the fourth book of the series. In the series, Higson shows a young boy thrown into several painful battles. A great past for agent 007. In Hurricane Gold, Bond is visiting a rich friend's(Jack Stone) house with his Aunt. Jack takes his Aunt to Palenque and James is left in his Mexico house with the servants and Jack's kids, Precious and JJ. That night, a hurricane hits and a group of thieves comes to steal naval documents. Not able to open the safe, the JJ and Precious are taken hostage. James must go on a journey to save the kids and recover the documents. The thieves plans have been changed courtesy of the hurricane. James is taken to the island of Lagrimas Negras, an island of thieves. It is controlled by an evil leader, El Huracan. With a heartstopping climax and a journey through the avenue of death, Hurricane Gold is by far the best young James Bond book in the series.
