Puffin’s paperback edition of By Royal Command, due for release in the UK on May 28, will contain a preview extract of the all-new Young Bond story by Charlie Higson.

The story -- which may or may not be the shipboard short story Charlie mentioned at the Hurricane Gold launch party in 2007 -- will be published in the new Young Bond companion book, Danger Society: The Young Bond Dossier, due for release in November.

Hopefully the preview will include the story title, which at the moment is being kept Top Secret.

By Royal Command can be pre-ordered now at Amazon.co.uk.
