The cover for the new James Bond novel by William Boyd has been revealed, featuring die-cut bullet holes which "hint at danger and espionage". Solo, set in 1969, features Bond as a veteran agent, whose solo mission in Africa takes an unexpected turn. The designer, Random House creative director Suzanne Dean, said she was inspired by Ian Fleming's 007 series. The audiobook edition of the novel, published in September, will be narrated by actor Dominic West.

Is it a “James Bond is racist” thread?

The UK cover is cool. The U.S. one is boring.

I just preordered the Jonathan Cape (UK) edition. The Harper edition is so-so.
