It has been confirmed that a brand new James Bond novel has been commissioned to celebrate the coronation of King Charles III.
The new novel, which arrives 60 years after the publication of Ian Flemings 10th novel, On Her Majestys Secret Service, will be written by Charlie Higson, author of the bestselling Young Bond series, and will be called On His Majestys Secret Service.
The novel will be published on Thursday 4th May ahead of the coronation on Saturday 6th May, with all royalties from the sale of the book going to support the work of the National Literacy Trust.
The book is set in the present day on the date of release and will see Bond sent at the last minute to thwart an attempt to disrupt the coronation by the wealthy, eccentric and self-styled Athelstan of Wessex, who is on a deadly mission to teach the United Kingdom a lesson. Can Bond dismantle his shady plans and defeat his privately hired team of mercenaries?

Higson said in a statement: "When IFP [Ian Fleming Publications] came to me with the idea of writing an adult Bond story a little more than a month ago, I was thrilled until I realised it had to be ready for the coronation in May.
"Getting it written and turned around in such a short space of time was going to be as tense and heart-pounding as any Bond mission. Although, of course, nobody would actually be shooting at me."

They're literally rushing out this book just for the title lol >_>

James Bond is a loser beta for having loyalty to a monarch

Gross. Bond was special because of Ian Fleming's writing. I wouldn't want to read Bond written by anyone else.
