In January of this year I found a copy of a book for sale online I'd been hunting for several years. Prior to handing over my credit card number I'd studied the photos and asked the seller the usual questions: Any inscriptions? What's the spine like? Is it ex-library? Needless to say the copy they'd promised was not the copy that arrived...
... and luckily they offered me a full refund.
Fast forward to last month and I finally found another copy for sale. It arrived a week ago and upon opening the well packed parcel I discovered there were no library stamps this time!
Published in the U.K. by Mammoth Books, "As Good As Gold" was written by Dave Morris in 1993. It was released to coincide with the James Bond Jr. cartoon series on TV screens at the time.
There were several other children's books published featuring this character in the early 1990's. All are included on PizGloria.com but this is the only "Choose Your Own Adventure" type book released.
Here's the two copies I now own, however the ex-library placeholder on the left can go now.
For further details I created this new page on my website. Apart from colouring books I believe I now have all the James Bond Jr. books ever published.
