In a PM from Miss Moneypenny's desk in London, Ian Fleming Publications request feedback on what books and products you’re interested in seeing from them in the future. Classification: Gold level (For Your Eyes Only)
The message reads as follows...
“To our agents in the field,
Today, August the twelfth, marks precisely 60 years since the death of Ian Lancaster Fleming – journalist, father, ‘the world’s worst stockbroker’, and of course author of the beloved stories detailing the exploits of our very own James Bond.
To mark this date, and celebrate Fleming’s legacy, Ian Fleming Publications are pleased to reveal the covers for their new hardback editions of all fourteen of Fleming’s original Bond adventures, created by legendary designer Michael Gillette.
Out on October 3rd, the new hardbacks will all include not only brand new cover art but also exquisite endpapers, also by Agent Gillette, and a range of specially-selected archival material relating to Ian and his time writing his 007 adventures. Pre-order your copies via ianfleming.com, and do remember to clear some space on your shelves.
British operatives are reminded that there are only a couple of weeks to wait until they can get their hands on the UK paperback edition of Kim Sherwood’s latest Double O novel. A Spy Like Me sees agents race from Venice to Afghanistan to Dubai to stop a deadly series of terror attacks, and to save our finest spy, and is out on August 29th. To celebrate the launch, on Saturday August 31 at 9pm BST (4pm EDT/1pm PDT) Kim will be hosting an online event where she'll be answering your burning questions. Tickets are £10, or free for paid subscribers to Kim's newsletter. Find out more here.
Let us leave you with some wise words to ponder from screenwriter Bruce Feirstein who worked on GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough, and a half-dozen James Bond video games: ‘The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.’
Sincerely,
Miss Moneypenny”
