I really liked Sebastian Faulks new James Bond book, Devil May Care, and I've just seen a news item saying Jeffrey Deaver has been commissioned to write the next Bond story.
His Bond story will be set in the present day, unlike Faulks installment, set in 1967. I've never read any Deaver, although I know there are a lot of fans on the forum, so I'll be keen to read his take on Bond due out next May.
