Young Bond author Charlie Higson will be making two appearances at the Imperial War Museum Ian Fleming Centenary exhibition, which opens this Thursday, April 17, and runs until March 1, 2009.

Charlie will appear first on Saturday, May 24, 2008, to discuss the Young Bond series and his latest bestseller, Hurricane Gold. The talk will be at 11am. Tickets are £5.

Charlie will return on June 10, 2008, where he will join a panel of authors, including fellow Bond novelist Samantha Weinberg (author of the Moneypenny Diaries series), to discuss how they each made Fleming’s Bond their own. The panel will be chaired by Ben Macintyre, author of the official exhibition book, For Your Eyes Only, Ian Fleming and James Bond. Tickets are £12.
