About this book

Bond, a shattered man after the death of his wife at the hands of SPECTRE founder Ernst Stavro Blofeld, has gone to pieces as an agent, endangering himself and his fellow operatives. M, unwilling to accept the loss of one of his best men, sends 007 to Japan for one last, near-impossible mission with the hopes of bolstering his spirits.

Who this is for

AI · Sample

A relentless, joke-a-page apocalyptic LitRPG that rewards readers who don't mind game mechanics on the page.

Best read in long sittings; the pace assumes you're not putting it down.
