Publisher's summary

The perfect hero for a world gone mad....

An old enemy seeking revenge sends James Flynn back around the bend and into a wild adventure even more deranged than his last one. Once again he believes that his psychiatric hospital is the headquarters of Her Majesty’s Secret Service and that he is a secret agent with a license to kill.

With the help of Sancho, his reluctant sidekick, Flynn confronts a mysterious new adversary just as unhinged as he is and far more deadly. The entire planet is in danger, and the only one who can save it is someone no one believes.

The fate of the world now rests in the hands of a man suavely dancing on the thin line between objective reality and batshit crazy.

Another entertaining romp!

If you liked the first one you'll love this one!

It's hard to find a good espionage thriller that combines action and humor so well but damn is Haris Orkin talented at it! Had a lot of fun with the story, love the characters, narration is on point, and always wondering what was gonna happen next. Enjoyable from start to finish. I also got a kick out of the obscure trivia at the beginning of the chapters, lots of information I did not know!

On top of the thrills and laughs there's also a rather ardent look at the idea of identity, who we are vs who we want to be, and how to reconcile that with how the world sees us, which was unexpectedly profound.

Highly recommend this series!

I love this series.

It kind of reminds me of a Bill Murray movie titled “The Man Who Knew to Little,” but this hero is more respectable somehow despite being a mental patient.
I’m sure that sounds like a bizarre statement but if you like quirky comedies you will likely love this book series.

More please

Please don't let this be the last of James Flynn. These books took me to my childhood with James Bond. I laughed to hard and felt so bad at James predicament. I need more of James Flynn please!!!!!!

Hysterical romp with not just a little pathos

If you love James Bond, as I do, and don't take him too seriously - listen to this. The Flemming quotes, the Bond mannerisms and ticks are just right. Excellent voice acting from Chris Ciulla too. Checkout book 1, You Only Live Once, it's free for some members, bought this book and listened all the way through immediately after it. Can't wait for book 3!
