For me, the gem in this collection is the short story, "Blast From the Past"! It is a direct sequel to Fleming's book "You Only Live Twice" and reveals more about that storyline. Bond receives a message, apparently from his son James Suzuki (Suzuki's mother is Kissy Suzuki from "You Only Live Twice", now dead) asking him to come to New York City on an urgent matter. When Bond arrives, he finds his son murdered, poisoned by fugu syrup! (again, I hear Homer Simpson shouting "Fugu me!") 007 learns that his son was killed in revenge by Irma Bunt, whom he had thought was already dead! And Bunt is also the one who killed his wife Tracy in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service"! Needless to say Bond is pissed!
So, for me, it was interesting to revisit the plotline of Bond's son, and to have an old villain return, especially one who had done so much damage to 007's life. Boy that Bunt is one bad gal - kills Bond's only wife AND his only offspring. Bitch. ( )
