Just one little question. Why couldn't us Americans get two Young Bond novels in the same year like the British readers did? I can't help but feel a little gypped. Particularly since we'll have to wait at least a couple of years to read the third and fourth installments already. (Much the same goes for The Moneypenny Diaries series.)

All I can say is, at least, we're getting the books.

I was also wondering if maybe they'd do two in one year like in the UK. That's what led me to ask. Oh well. At least we're back on track.

Indeed. Hopefully something from Kev Walker once again.

I am guessing something set in the jungle. That graphic novel, if it ever eventuates, could look very nice indeed.

Should be October as long as we avoid any further delays!

Makes sense if we were forced to wait until 2008 for Double or Die.

Well, yeah, but the fairness is still highly questionable.

Well, most countries are only seeing DOD this year. UK and Germany where the only countries that got it in early 07. France got it in late 07. The rest the world is getting it in 2008, including the U.S. And most will not see HG until 2009.
