Tom Clancy and Ian Flemming are pretty much capeshit. Comparing them with, let’s say Kipling would be like comparing Ant Man Quantumania with Lawrence of Arabia
No, and that’s my point. Spy novels are capeshit tier, some can be very fun, some are unreadable, but none of them are “great novels”. Same thing with movies. You’ll find soyence in books as much as in films.
i like that spy stuff but it's pretty much "pulp". very little character development in them, except for one bond book. theyre moreso interesting as time capsules

Shut up, Flemming is kino and he wrote his books based off his experience serving in the British intelligence which makes it 2x as cool

Did Kipling wrote spy novels tho? Pretty different genres all together

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is far from capeshit tier. The whole genre isn't just Fleming and Tom Clancy
