    Looking forward to this. I wonder if it will have some unused Fleming bits again like the previous 2 had.

    That's what a lot of us are wondering. No official word on it yet but I hope so as that is an extra draw for many; to read new Fleming Bond material.

    Maybe Bond's birth will actually be portrayed this time.

    If they go far enough back in time, yes. They could call it Younger Bond.

    In that case I hope it *isn't* unreleased Fleming; I don't need that bit to be too descriptive.

    Don't worry. Fleming would never have come up with an idea as awful as that. Leave that to Purvis and Wade instead.

    I was being funny, bookending the finale of NTTD. I would certainly hate such a thing.

    At one point DC was doing comics about Superbaby, so the adventures of toddler Bond are a very real possibility. Dastardly German midwives, out of control prams, communist daycare teachers, cradlerobbers, diaper smuggling gangs...the possibilities are endless!

    you know I was put on some kind of list probably as I was doing ton of research to see if Smersh had any other 5 word motto or if Russian intelligence had one but so far alas nope...


    so I am sure I will be likely as surprised as everyone next month when the title is released... Why December title release because I have a feeling the book is coming in February/march as to not over shadow Kim's (long sigh of disappointment) other 00 series of books.

    I was joining in with the joke too, in case it wasn't clear. Sometimes meaning is lost via text. Just read Jacques Derrida.

    I'm going to order the first two books (I know, I was a bit slow on this).

    What are exactly the Fleming extras? Notes from the 007/Danger Man series?

    They were outlines for a TV series. He did quite a few and some of them became short stories, and some were never used.
    They were incorporated into the Horowitz stories, but I think only special editions from Waterstones featured facsimiles of the typed out Fleming pages themselves in the back.

    Thanks, I need to check which ones (I presume the UK hardbacks) have the extra outro with the Fleming material. In the meantime, I'm ordering The Man with the Golden Typewriter by Fergus Fleming. I expect a nice read!

    I ordered it too Stamper, it's arriving tomorrow. The one thing that swung it for me was reading there's a chapter devoted to each of the novels. I'm expecting it to be a very good reference book whilst reading the novels.
    I can't find a thread devoted to The Man With the Golden Typewriter, is there one, anyone?
    (I don't want to start a thread on it and have it locked, which happens occasionally on this board I've noticed).

    They only get locked if they're redundant (or they're nonsense /spam).

    A quick Google search (much better than our own search, sadly) of "mi6community golden typewriter" brings this:

    It's an old thread, but may as well revive it if you want to discuss it!
