I just added to the website (PW page) an excerpt from the review of Private Wars which the San Francisco Chronicle published recently. Here's our favorite line:

"Rucka gets things right, serving up a taut and exciting tale of spycraft and "wet work" that will appeal to anyone who thinks James Bond is too effete for modern sensibilities."

It's been years since I've read the original Fleming novels but effete? I'm not disagreeing but I think that's what Hollywood did to Bond. As I recall, Tara might not have had too much disdain for Fleming's Bond. That said, she's the original tough chick and much more interesting, imo.
