Hi there.

I was just wondering if you guys know when By Royal Command will be coming out in paperback in the UK? All my other Young Bond books are in paperback, and I want the same to match my collection.

Thanks!

Can you PM me some cake too. :(


Just kidding, of course.



First, welcome to CBn, cake.

Second, so you’re not going to share the answer with the class, Master zencat?

A ‘stay tuned...’ it is then. Fair play.

I'd like to publicly thank zencat for the information he sent me. Check out his site next week to find out too, I suppose!?

Secondly, thank you Mister Asterix to welcoming me to the forum. I am not a massive Bond fanatic, but I do enjoy reading these books and watching some films. I'll see you around!

The release date is...May 28, 2009.

(Sorry for the tease. It's pretty much the date you'd expect.)

I just finsihed this, I ordered it from the UK. Higson has done a great job with these books, up until now I did prefer Alex Rider but at last it seems to be working.

Wonder if we'll get something totally new for the cover, or if it will be based off of the UK hardback?

As with HG, I expect it will new. Maybe it will still sport a flag image of some kind (no creature in BRC), but I think the design will match the other paperbacks. It better!
