It’s not big James Bond news but it’s a bit of news.
Author Anthony Horowitz provided a tiny tease via Twitter of his second James Bond continuation novel.
“I’ve reached the 50,000th word of the new Bond novel,” Horowitz wrote. “Disappointingly, it’s ‘and’. That is, however, one of the words of the title.”
Of course, that (intentionally) doesn’t say much. We presumably can rule out a one-word title unless it will be called “And.” That doesn’t seem likely.
Horowitz authored 2015’s Trigger Mortis, which included some previously unpublished Ian Fleming story material.
The author was asked back for an encore by Ian Fleming Publications. His second 007 novel is scheduled to be published next year. The new effort also is to include previously unpublished Fleming material.
Here’s what today’s tweet looked like:
