Read my five part THE SECRET HISTORY OF YOUNG JAMES BOND which covers the creation of the series and each of the five books, taking us right up to today's big refresh.
I know you've mentioned these covers before John when Charlie Higson tweeted them, but they look great
ReplyDeleteSeems odd there's not a Danger Society to match. Know of any plans for that?
ReplyDeleteI wish they'd stock these on The Book Depository. Shipping from Amazon UK is just so much these days.
They did have them on The Book Depository when they were first announced last year. What I've found with that site is some books are only available for a limited time. You have to pre-order as soon as you see them.
DeleteYeah, I was also sorry to see Danger Society not among these. I think that book is going to become a real rarity.
