This new installment in the adventures of the world's most iconic spy has been written by one of Britain's most admired novelists, Sebastian Faulks. 'My novel is meant to stand in the line of Fleming's own books, where the story is everything' said Faulks, 'In his house in Jamaica, Ian Fleming used to write a thousand words in the morning, then go snorkelling, have a cocktail, lunch on the terrace, more diving, another thousand words in late afternoon, then more Martinis and glamorous women. In my house in London, I followed this routine exactly, apart from the cocktails, the lunch and the snorkelling'.Picking up from where Fleming left off in 1966 with The Living Daylights \/ Octopussy , Faulks has written the perfect continuation of the James Bond legacy. Devil May Care is set during the Cold War and features all the glamor, thrills and excitement that one would expect from any adventure involving Bond...James Bond.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(25, 25, 25); font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Broadhursts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51022917828947,"sku":"863 rm","price":68.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/1469\/6787\/files\/s-l1600_f4efbfa2-fb95-45ad-a28a-edeadc87a8b4.jpg?v=1774977628"},{"product_id":"1933-the-venner-crime-by-john-rhode-first-edition-dust-wrapper","title":"The Venner Crime, John Rhode — 1st Edition","description":"\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"11\" data-end=\"533\"\u003eVery Good: Original dust jacket present, showing minor wear with light creasing and small chips to extremities; cover artwork remains bright and vibrant, now protected in a plastic sleeve.
