Dr No

Dear all,
This story was written by Ian Fleming. Since Flaming wrote the story ,the names of some countries and their kind of governments have changed.

Do you know JAMES BOND? The story of Doctor No takes place in the 1950's.
The task sends him to Jamacia, where he joins forces with Quarrel and a loyal CIA agent.

An agent of the British Secret Service, James Bond (007), is sent out to the West Indies in order to find out why another of his number was killed.

The story of Dr NO was made into a film in 1962. The film started the actor Sean Connery, and the Bond films continue to be huge international successes.

I love the third JAMES BOND "Roger Moore". But ｈｅ ｄｉｅｄ　at 91's.

Silver Blaze and Other Stories

This book is Sherlock Holmes's short collection.

I read Sherlock Holmes's stories when I was a child, but there is no story that I read before. Therefore, all stories were able to be read being interested. I think the mystery is trivial when a reader knows the trick before reading. I think the third story "The Six Napoleons" is the most interesting. A mysterious event in the first half of the story and the end from which the mystery is beautifully solved is wonderful.

By the way, the Sherlock Holmes series are made into films many times. The famous actor who performed Holmes posts was Buster Keaton, Basil Rathbone, Peter Cushing, Jeremy Brett and Roger Moore. I hardly saw those films, but I think Roger Moore matches unexpectedly to the image of Holms. James Bond and Sherlock Holmes were good at combative sports and gun, actives, and heavy smoker.
