Publisher's summary

James Bond is back where he belongs.

Anthony Horowitz's new novel is a thrilling tour de force, sure to delight fans of the original 007 novels and new readers alike. It also features previously unseen material written by Bond's creator, Ian Fleming.

The story begins in the lethal world of Grand Prix and with an attempt by the Russians to sabotage a race at Nürburgring, the most dangerous track in Europe. Bond is in the driving seat, but events swiftly take an unexpected turn, pitching him into an entirely different race with implications that could change the world.

Anthony Horowitz recreates the golden age of Bond, packed with speed, danger, strong women, and fiendish villains, in this brilliantly authentic adventure.

David Oyelowo has appeared in films such as The Last King of Scotland, Lincoln, Jack Reacher, The Butler and Selma.

A great rewrite of a James Bond classic

A great rewrite of a James Bond classic by Anthony Horowitz and well narrated by David Oyelowo. Murder, mystery, suspense, extraordinary high speed car racing, exquisite sexual conquests and miraculous escapes from certain death, all interwoven with international espionage at the beginning of the space race. They don't make 'em like this anymore. Top tier work in my opinion.

Horrible Narrator

I am an unashamed Bond fanboy and I loved Forever and a Day, so bought this book as well. Man! What a disappointment. The nasal monotone of the narrator is unbearable. Rather read the book yourself and skip the Audible version. I had to keep on rewinding because I simply cannot concentrate on his droning. Why could they not keep Matthew Goode? He personified Bond, M, 16, and the other characters. The story is good though, but the narration ruins it.
