Rating: Summary: Steed drives for his life; Emma fights with her eyes closed Review: Another dangerous and exciting mission for our favorite agents. Something's terribly wrong at the Courier. Anti-British sentiments keep appearing in the headlines. What criminal geniuses are behind the stories? It's up to the Avengers to save the day.
Rating: Summary: Lacks the wit and charm of The Avengers and Me. Review: The cover of Rigg and Macnee is the best part of the book.Emma Peel does not appear until page 50. In a delightful scene, Steed summons Emma at 3 a.m. to meet him in a night club. He knows she is approaching by the snapping of every man's neck as they all turn their heads to look at her. When Emma discovers it is nothing urgent, she berates Steed, who signals frantically for the check. Unfortunately, the plot does downhill. The Avengers and Me is charming and a joy to read, Blind in One Ear offers insight into Macnee's highly unusual childhood and the forces that shaped him. Like Dead Duck, there is none of the sparkling repartee, and the plot is dull and pedestrian. The best Avengers novel- Julie Kaewert's adaptation. Is anyone going to reprint Geoff Barlow's avengers novel- The Saga of Happy Valley? Why not ILL (interlibrary loan) MacNee's novel? Then purchase the book if you want to. I wouldn't buy either of MAcnee's novels if I had it to do over again. I would purchase his book, The Avengers and Me. It charms, sparkles and delights. Macnee's novels just disappoint. Terrible plots!
Rating: Summary: Real Avengers Fan's this book is a must ! Review: This Avengers book will remind you of the classic story's that have been followed, by the best Avenging team of Mrs. Peel and John Steed. Follow them as they try to search out the fraudsters at work amongst the presses of the Courier newspaper. The book is a must for Avengers fans it will allow your imagination to follow a classic Avengers adventure. Resulting in your return to the book to keep up with the gripping story. Patrick MacNee thankyou for keeping the Avengers we and truly alive with this book.
