Great news today for
fans of TRIGGER MORTIS, Anthony
Horowitz will be writing another James Bond novel. The next novel,
whose title is yet to be announced, will be published by Jonathan Cape
in Spring 2018. Jonathan Cape, of course, are the original publishers
of Ian Fleming’s James Bond series in the UK, as well as the first
edition publishers of Kingsley Amis’ COLONEL SUN and the first six
John Gardner Bond novels.
‘Writing TRIGGER
MORTIS was a pleasure and I was delighted by the positive response
when it was published. And I was thrilled when The Ian Fleming Estate
asked me to come back. How could I refuse? I can’t wait to return to
the world of James Bond.’
Anthony Horowitz
When Jonathan Cape published CASINO ROYALE in 1953, James Bond’s
literary journey began. Now, in 2018, Jonathan Cape will see it
continue.
‘We are absolutely thrilled that Anthony Horowitz is going to write a
second James Bond novel with inspiration again from original Fleming
material, and of course delighted that Bond will be back home at
Jonathan Cape. TRIGGER MORTIS was a superb book, full of energy, wit,
twists and turns, and we can’t wait to see what Anthony comes up with
next.’
