Having bought the book a while ago at The 10th Planet, but due to the poor quality of the other Avengers novels had not begun it.
Well the other day I was browsing in a classic second hand bookshop, the bloke had so much stock half of it blocked seeing what he had, I found Dead Duck, the original printing bought it for about pound and returned home to start reading it, but keen to keep it in reasonable condition I starting reading the re-print.
The book is very good and really does play out like an Avengers Episode, the setting is pure Avenger land and as I have been seeking more adventures for the Avengers was grateful for the chance to read something fresh and more to the point enjoyable.
What do the fans think about the book though?
In terms of placing it in an era, although the book was written in 66 I feel it belongs more in the 65/66 monochrome era.
Would like to get hold of Deadline Now
