DUNS AT LITERARY 007

As James Bond fans eagerly read the first excerpts of the new 007 novel by William Boyd (out Sept 26th UK/Oct 8th US), the stylish Literary 007 blog sat down with author Jeremy Duns to discuss his favorite Fleming stories and classic book designs. You can read the interview here. Jeremy Duns has often been a guest on Spy Vibe. See his interview about Ian Fleming and book collecting in our For Your Shelf Only series here, and his favorite spy movie sets here. Jeremy Duns is a British journalist and author of the Paul Dark novels. He recently released two non-fiction books, Dead Drop and Rogue Royale (about a lost Bond screenplay by Ben Hecht!). Enjoy!


Get ready to meet MIKI ZERO, Japanese fashion model and spy! The creator of Spy Vibe has written a novel called Elevator Girl, inspired by his love of Ian Fleming and based on newly declassified intel from the Cold War. More info at Whiton's website here.
