Tomorrow, October 23rd, is the official release date for Vaseem Khan's "Quantum Of Menace". This is the latest official novel in what is becoming a very popular literary world... the James Bond universe.
I received this hardback edition just a few days ago and I think it looks great. The dust-jacket is really catching and I especially like the graphics on the spine.
I feel the novel itself is an interesting concept with the main character being Major Boothroyd (aka "Q"), the man who provides the gadgets to Bond in the movies. According to the blurb on the front of the dust-jacket "Q is out of MI6... and in over his head".
I haven't had a chance to start reading yet, however the reviews I've seen online have been very positive, with another fellow Australian who acquired an early copy even commenting that he "will probably read it again" !
