## Resource

The iron curtain has fallen. Intelligence is dispersing in its heavy draught. Europe is transitioning towards a single market. Conditions are ripe for a new world order... and for the twelfth continuation novel by John Gardner. "Death is Forever" situates Bond upon the shifting sands of this new environment, investigating the disintegration of "Cabal" - an allied intelligence network that once ran the gauntlet of late Cold War conflicts. From spider-egg sarnies to poisoned dwarves, light-grenade gimmicks to railcar assassinations, Gardner polishes up an old-styled Bond here for a new-era narrative. Summary@06:30; PIPES@43:30
