Fans of the James Bond books awaiting Anthony Horowitz’s 007 novel, to be published on 8th September this year and curently known as “Project One”, may be interested to learn the author has submitted the manuscript to Ian Fleming Publications. Horowitz made the following announcement on twitter yesterday:
I have delivered the new James Bond novel today! No sleep now for a week or so while I wait for the response.

Horowitz follows Sebastian Faulks, Jeffery Deaver and William Boyd in adding one-off continuation novels to the 007 universe.
I loved Devil May Care and Carte Blanche, but Solo fell flat for me.
I just picked up an old John Gardner Bond. Excellent.
Anticipation! We all remember the first one-shot deal, Robert Markham’s COLONEL SUN, and the Gardner (which I didn’t like) and Raymond Benson (which I loved) follow ups, but does anyone remember Sol Weinstein’s hilarious Israel Bond, Oy-Oy-Seven novels? Lol. (LOXFINGER, MATZOHBALL, On the Secret Servivce of His Majesty the Queen and You Only Live Until You Die)
