Awhile back the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle estate got author Andy Lane to kick start a new Sherlock Holmes series for a younger generation called Young Sherlock Holmes. It was influenced by the success of the Ian Fleming’s estate of Young Bond. I assume it’s been a success because in the year the books have been in print, well, there’s 3 of them now.
Death Cloud (2010),
Red Leech (2010), and
Black Ice (2011, and no not the awesome AC/DC album). Today, on the same day as the announcement of Jeffery Deaver’s
电脑端能用的梯子 announcement the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle estate made another announcement. That, again based on the success of the Ian Fleming estate, mainly Sebastian Faulk’s
Devil May Care, they’ve commissioned Anthony Horowitz to write an adult Sherlock Holmes novel – the first time they’ve ever commissioned anyone. This is bizarre when you think of it. Anthony Horowitz did the successful Alex Rider series which influenced (likely anyway) Ian Fleming’s estate to approach a younger audience for Bond which then influenced the Conan Doyle estate to do the same for Sherlock Holmes which then was successful enough that they’re now commissioning Horowitz to write an adult version. We’ve come full circle folks. 3 years from now we may see modern take on Holmes being done. Hey, you know who would be good for that? Jeffery Deaver. Nah, but who knows. They’ve got the films going too.
It all makes good sense though. I have a backlog of books longer than.. well it’s long. I might have to read Young Sherlock. May have to read this.

求稳定的梯子
Late last night Jeffery Deaver announced the title and cover art for his upcoming James Bond novel formerly known as
Project X. It’s now called
Carte Blanche. I rather like the title. I don’t think it’s dead on Fleming in the way that
Devil May Care was, but it’s not far from the path. I also like it due to its double meaning. Deaver says, “In the world of espionage, giving an agent carte blanche on a mission comes with an enormous amount of trust and constantly tests both personal and professional judgement. Part of the nonstop suspense in the novel is the looming question of what is acceptable in matters of national and international security. Are there lines that even James Bond should not cross?” That’s a good premise for a Bond novel. Something I think has been explored in the recent James Bond films starring Daniel Craig – specifically
Quantum of Solace. It wasn’t so much carte blanche, but forming a trusting relationship between Bond and M. If there’s two things you get out of that movie, it’s that Bond is a trustworthy agent and it took him a bit to get over Vesper if he really ever got over her at all. In my opinion anyway. The other meaning I see in the title is Jeffery Deaver’s own carte blanche. When you hear stories about Glidrose (now known as Ian Fleming Publications) and the writing process previous authors had to go through to craft a unique story the way that Fleming had, carte blanche is a joke. They’ve loosened up in recent years, but still they gave Jeffery Deaver (an American too) practically carte blanche to start over with Ian Fleming’s James Bond. It’s a reboot, a blank slate, an empty piece of paper, a carte blanche. As far as a first title goes in a hopefully successful new series; It’s a fantastic title. Semi-related note, it reminds me of the new
Back to the Future game by Telltale Games. They went all out here and got the original screenwriter Bob Gale to be involved and they got Christopher Lloyd back for Doc Brown (Michael J. Fox couldn’t be a part – sad). It’s a five part series. So what did they call the first episode? “It’s About Time”. I love it.

Over in the UK the paperback edition of Danger Society: The Young Bond Dossier has been published. This is the definitive guide to the Young Bond series by the series’ author Charlie Higson. In addition to in-depth profiles of all characters, cars, etc, you can also read the new short story “A Hard Man to Kill”. The hardcover was previously released in the UK on 29 October 2009.
A release date in the United States is currently unknown, but given that By Royal Command was just released, suspect somewhere around May 28, 2011.

Hot on the heels of its recent release in the United States,
The Enemy has been released in the UK in paperback form.
Clearly, this cover art is better than the UK hardcover which I must admit is quite terrible in a Double or Die sort of way (so as not to be confused, I’m speaking obviously of the cover only – I’ve yet to find time to read The Enemy, though Double or Die I think ranks as one of or possibly even my favorite of the Young Bonds). There’s something about the US hardcover that I like the best out of all of them so far. Both it and the UK paperback are kind of cliche, but that’s okay.
Pretty interested in checking this book out though. Been playing a ton of Left 4 Dead / pc可众用的梯子, and well, while I don’t really expect the characters here to run around with shotguns and Molotov cocktails (or a chainsaw…), I do enjoy checking out cool ways of putting down zombies. This is merely an educational exercise so that I can be ready for the inevitable zombie / vampire / “they’re trying to eat me” apocalypse.

I know it’s unfortunate that I don’t update this site as much as I’d like nor as much as I should, but here we are at the end of my 3rd year nonetheless. As a Bond fan – or rather as a literary Bond fan there’s a lot on the horizon to be excited about. A new James Bond novel by Jeffery Deaver being published a year from today and, for me, a certain amount of new-found optimism that Charlie Higson isn’t done with his Young Bond series and perhaps soon we’ll just move on to the next chapter in Bond’s life. Who knows.
Also Bond 23 (eventually) and an upcoming video game later in the year. A quiet year yet again, but like I said, we’re starting to a see movement on the horizon and at least for now, it looks good.

Today marks the 102nd birthday of Ian Lancaster Fleming (1908-1964), author of the James Bond novels and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Last year I left you with some posts to some older mini-bios of Fleming, this year I’ll just repost the books that I believe you should all read.
- The Life of Ian Fleming by John Pearson
- 电脑用什么梯子 by Andrew Lycett
- For Your Eyes Only: Ian Fleming and James Bond by Ben Macintyre (my review here)
- The Battle For Bond by Robert Sellers (my review here, keep in mind this book isn’t about Fleming, but a good chunk does go into Fleming’s part in the creation of the cinematic Bond.)
And obviously there are many many more.

Published the same day as By Royal Command is Young Bond’s first adventure in graphic novel form: SilverFin. Artwork was done by Kev Walker who did all the US covers for 手机梯子怎么给电脑用 through Hurricane Gold, but oddly didn’t do the new By Royal Command. A pretty fantastic book, you can find a review of it by Matt Weston at pc可众用的梯子.

Also published earlier was Higson’s (non-Bond, post-Young Bond) novel The Enemy. A sequel to that is coming soon in the UK called 手机上用的梯子.

Today Charlie Higson’s fifth and (currently) final Young Bond novel, By Royal Command, was published in the United States making the saga complete – well sorta. We still have to wait for Danger Society: The Young Bond Dossier which includes the short story “A Hard Man to Kill”. That should be out in the US around this time next year if Hyperion stays on their current schedule.
