a Mind to Kill; the acclaimed bestselling mystery novels Magpie
Murders, Moonflower Murders and Marble Hall Murders; and the

War. In January 2022 he was awarded a CBE for his services to

The super spy is back, with a fresh injection from novelist and
screenwriter extraordinaire, Anthony Horowitz. The expert in
suspense takes us back to the beginning of James Bond’s story… the
story rips along with plenty of familiar Bond staples: evil
villains, fast cars and women falling for young Bond’s charms. Ian
Fleming would be proud.
*Guardian*
Horowitz is a worthy successor to Ian Fleming, putting 007 back in
his true domain… This New Bond is up there with the better Old
Bonds… The denouement is a very fine piece of action writing…
Horowitz has done splendidly.
*Scotsman*
Straight away Horowitz is able to capture Fleming’s flowing style
and intricate details from how Bond likes his eggs in the morning
to the cars he drives... He’s just as faithfully suave as in the
original novels.
*Daily Express*
A novel that feels very like a film… fast-paced, skilfully written…
leaves you wanting more, and for serious Bond junkies [it] is the
next fix in a long tale of addiction.
*The Times*
Even better than Trigger Mortis… it is tremendous fun. Anthony
Horowitz has the discipline and skill of a first-class action
writer.
*Sunday Express*
Exciting high drama… Horowitz stays loyal to the fabulous Fleming
formula. And for that he surely deserves another mission guiding
the fortunes of the world’s favourite superspy.
*Daily Express*
[Horowitz's Bond] is once again in safe hands, not departing much
from Fleming’s entertaining formula... Horowitz’s light touch and
smooth plotting create something close to the ideal holiday
read.
*Irish Examiner*
Anthony Horowitz writes Bond in the style of Fleming... Total brain
candy in the best possible fashion.
*RTE Guide*
Anthony Horowitz's second James Bond book will keep 007 obsessives
happy with martinis, beautiful women and an enormously fat Corsican
gangster.
*The Times *Best New Novels**
Horowitz shows that he knows the Fleming books backwards, offering
plot twists that are homages to the master's novels. This nicely
imagined book... is an amusing and thought-provoking addition to
the post-Fleming bond canon.
