If you are longing for a return to the original James Bond, he doesn't like to kill in cold blood, is pro-birth control, admires JFK, and has been known to hide the body if he thinks a woman murdered the man abusing her. That's book Bond.

The James Bond Book Club 011: London Station by David McCloskey (@mccloskeybooks), published by @_SwiftPress .
This is the fifth book by former CIA analyst, author of bestselling novel Damascus Station and co-host of smash-hit espionage podcast, @triclassified.
This time, the question is: what if the CIA and MI6 turned against each other?
The answer is a gripping, high-stakes thriller set inside the CIAβs London Station. With a cast of fascinating and flavourful characters, it sees McCloskey at his best. His first-hand knowledge of the intelligence world, combined with his ability to craft a realistic yet relentlessly action-packed narrative, makes this a thriller of the highest order.
London Station comes out on 8th October, so pre-order a copy and read along with us. Plus, stay tuned for our interview with David where weβll be discussing the book and the world of espionage β real and fictional.

King Zero by @monstroso is out in the UK today!ββ
'A brilliant addition to the James Bond canon, written with great brio and aplomb and a shrewd understanding of what makes the Bond universe tick. Wholly compelling' - William Boydβ
β
'[Higson] knows a thing or two about what makes for a good 007... Fans can rest assured that King Zero also brims with danger and sensual femme fatales, with sex and run-ins with sharks β even a streak of horror... itβs a terrific read' -Β The Timesβ
β
When a former MI6 agent is murdered in the Saudi desert, Bond uncovers a deadly conspiracy led by a powerful new enemy. Can the last analogue hero stop a digital-age threat before the countdown reaches zero?β

Had the launch party for my new Bond book last night, in a suitable Bondian venue. In a pre party Q&A I was asked who should sing the title song if King Zero ever became a film. Good question but I had no answer. Any suggestions?
