Ian Fleming
@TheIanFlemingSep 1
'James Bond hurtled through the air, caught a glimpse of the high beamed ceiling – and then his back hit the wooden floor with a crash that echoed around the gymnasium. He’d barely managed to utter a groan before his opponent pounced on his chest, a knee digging in either side of his torso, hands reaching for his collar.'​ Today marks 10 years since the publication of the eighth Young Bond adventure, @SteveColeBooks' Strike Lightning.​ Set at Fettes College, Bond investigates what his new school claims is a tragic accident – yet Bond suspects it was murder. In search of the truth – and revenge – Bond risks his life to learn of a new secret weapon that could change the course of history. ​ Explore all of the Young Bond books here: ianfleming.com/james-bond/me… #YoungBond #JamesBond #StrikeLightning #SteveCole

The Wild Ones by @SteveColeBooks & ill. by @johanna_tarkela is my top recommendation for a KS2 class read aloud this autumn. With layered meaning and the most gorgeous animal characters, it will hold classes on the edge of their seats. @scholasticuk scopeforimagination.co.uk/20…

The Wild Ones by Steve Cole

Narrated by the charming, honest and ever hopeful Jack Russell Terrior, Scamp, The Wild Ones is a beautiful story of finding light in darkness and the power of friendship. This is The Incredible Jo…

The Wild Ones @SteveColeBooks wow. Got a copy at the airport and devoured on my first day. Imagine a world as an animal abandoned. Humans are gone. Who do you trust? How do you survive? Can you dream of thriving when Things and the Shadow Hound lurk? Loved it. 🐶 🐱 🦜 🐹 🐰
