Daniel Craig and Olga Korylenko are filming Quantum of Solace
Fans of James Bond have been thrilled withthe releaseof the new Bond book Devil May Care, which was published on 28th May 2008.
Ian Fleming was the creatorof the fictionalcharacter James Bond 007 and wrote 14 Bond books during his lifetime, including some of the very well-known ones such as Casino Royale, Diamonds are Forever and Goldfinger.
Ian Fleming died in 1964 but the legacyof Bond carries on.
Since Ian Fleming's death, his estatehas authorised 32 James Bond novels by other writers. Sebastian Faulks, a reputable novelist, was commissionedto write the latest Bond book.
Faulks is not an author known for writing thrillers, so there was some speculationthat he would struggle to write a Bond novel successfully.
A review in the British newspaper the Guardian said, "The book, though, is a smart and enjoyable act of literary resurrection. Amongst the now 33 post-Fleming Bonds, this must surely compete with Kingsley Amis's for the title of the best."
Devil May Care is set in 1967 during the Cold Warand it is said that Bond will once again travel between continents, appearing at exoticlocations and some of the world's most thrilling cities.
It’s fair to say that James Bond has become a householdname and remains a huge influence within the thriller genrethrough his films.
It’s a double bonus for Bond fans as the new Bond film will be released later this year. The name of the new film is Quantum of Solace, a very confusingtitle which makes people scratch their heads.
