So, to sum up, even though Bond calls Judy “bitch” a few times in this book, and curses her overwhelming need and determination to avenge her parents' death by murdering von Hammerstein, he actually is quite impressed and enchanted by her. He loves the fact that she is armed and deadly. He loves that she knows so much about the wilderness that she can move through it undetected. He loves that she is comfortable with being in nature and 'roughing it.' This woman, or I should say, this type of woman is the type of woman that makes James Bond's heart beat faster. From the minute he sees her in her tattered, ragged shirt and trousers, with blood and sweat on her face and arms, and her quiver of shining arrows – he's smitten. Rich, Joshua.

An interesting psychological aspect to this novel is James Bond's dichotomy between his rich tastes, and his need for simplicity and hard work. James Bond loves rich food, alcohol, smoking, and he has very expensive tastes in everything. However, there is another side of him: the side that loves the outdoors, loves 'roughing it' in the wilderness, hates 5-star hotels, hates mansions, and really in fact dislikes rich people. It's fascinating to see how these two seemingly irreconcilable parts of Bond come together to make a whole. He is (at least partially) aware of this and it gets discussed in this book a little bit.Michael Lamont. "For Your Eyes Only audio commentary". For Your Eyes Only. Vol.1 (Ultimateed.). MGM Home Entertainment. Out of the five short stories included in the book, two were added in addition to the outlines Fleming had previously written for the proposed television series. The first, "The Hildebrand Rarity", was first published in Playboy in 1960. The second story, "Quantum of Solace", was an experimental piece Fleming had previously written for Cosmopolitan magazine. The short story actually has no secret agent elements.
