NEW JAMES BOND OMNIBUS

A new James Bond omnibus is scheduled for release on May 21st. Published by Thomas & Mercer, the mystery and thriller imprint of Amazon, the James Bond Collection with include three original Ian Fleming novels: Dr. No, Casino Royale, and Diamonds Are Forever. Amazon has finally released the cover design (below). The jacket does not follow Amazon's modern/abstract motif used for previous Fleming books. Spy Vibers may be reminded of the recent Bond releases in French, which used a similar silhouette and texture concept. Amazon picked up the North American rights to Ian Fleming's books last year and recently released his fiction and non-fiction titles as print and Kindle editions.
