I bumped into this over on another site this morning. Overall, the page count seems a lot shorter than I would have liked but at this point I just want the book.

The US publisher of the new James Bond continuation novel "Devil May Care" by author Sebastian Faulks has revealed a small tidbit about the upcoming title.

According to information on the Doubleday website, the new 007 novel will run for 304 pages.

The hardback edition of Devil May Care will be published on May 28th 2008 by Doubleday in the USA for $24.95, and Penguin in the UK.

The release date coincides with the centenary of the birth of Ian Fleming - 007's creator.

Gee. Wonder where they got that info without giving credit? :cooltongue:

(BTW, it is NOT on the Doubleday website as they say.)

Hey Qwerty, sorry if I posted something and didnt rightly attribute it to you. Quite frankly I didnt know they took it from your site. In any case, it feels short to me.

Read the original article, OmarB. It notes that it's actually the second longest adult Bond novel after Goldfinger.

No need to apologize to me, OmarB. :cooltongue: This news came first from zencat's Young Bond Dossier.
