Blood Fever

The Young James Bond book, Blood Fever, is about the adventure of young James Bond and because so much is happening and there are two storylines. I believe the author picked 3^rd person limited so that the reader could fully visualize the 2 story lines  while  foreshadowing and   making the reader make predictions easily without knowing too much and luring them into the metaphorical spiders web of a story.

 I believe this is true because when James was exploring in the Giants tombs the narrator told how James was feeling and what he thought whilst he didn’t say: “Little did James know that the dehydration was just about to take over,” That would have made the story 3^rd person omniscient or:

Cooper ffrench called out my name, and the sound seemed to pop and spin in to space with the noise like a firework.

I tipped foreword feeling the dehydration take over

And I was falling, down, down, down into that black abyss

 which would make it 1st person.

No, the narrator said:

 Cooper-ffrench called out his name, and the sound seemed to pop and spin into space with the noise like a firework.

 James tipped foreword.

And he was falling, down, down, down into that black abyss …

I also believe that 3^rd person limited is  good for this story because  it makes the reader(or just me) see this story like I’m there but I’m not there and that is a good feeling.
