Présentation de l'éditeur

Never again confuse SMERSH with SPECTRE, Oddjob with Onatopp, or Plenty O Toole with Pussy Galore. Bask in the admiration of your fellow James Bond aficionados, pronounce confidently on the finer points of the books, films and the character of the man himself, and hold your own against the most dismissive of doubters. DO SAY Holly Goodhead is arguably the most suggestively named of all the Bond girls. DON'T SAY The similarities between scar-faced, Nehru-suit-wearing, cat-stroking Dr Evil in Austin Powers, and Donald Pleasence s portrayal of Blofeld are purely coincidental. The Bluffer's® Guides: the 5-million-copy bestselling book series. These short, humorous guides contain all the facts you need to become an instant expert.

Biographie de l'auteur

Mark Mason has long struggled to accept that he is not James Bond. Born in the year of Sean Connery s Diamonds Are Forever comeback (or, as it is known to Chinese Bond fans, The Year of the Hairpiece), he has drawn constant inspiration from 007, in spite of an early seduction attempt involving a vodka martini and a faulty cocktail shaker which left him with a large dry cleaning bill. As well as being the author of novels and non-fiction works including The Importance of Being Trivial, Walk the Lines, a book about walking the entire London tube network (overground) and The Bluffer s Guide to Football   Mason is also a regular contributor to newspapers and magazines. He suspects that Bond wouldn t have much time for him.
