Luxury car dealer Tom Hartley Junior offers an original 1964 Aston Martin DB5 with custom-added Goldfinger gadgets. This same car was for sale a few years ago at an auction.

This is the first of three books by stunt man Paul Weston, who’s long history with film and tv includes stunt work on many James Bond films.

From the bombed-out streets of 1940s London to the dizzying heights of Superman's world, this first part of Paul's career is nothing short of extraordinary and reads like the most thrilling adventure film never made. Beginning as a photographic model and understudy to Sir Roger Moore in The Saint, he absorbed the technical and artistic skills that would make him one of the most respected stunt performers, coordinators, and 2nd unit directors in the film and TV world. His early work on The Avengers, The Prisoner, and the Beatles film, Help! led naturally into stunt work in the 1960s.

His breakthrough came with The Dirty Dozen and A Bridge Too Far, launching a career spanning six decades. From Pinewood to Hollywood, Paul's helped shape cinema's most defining action sequences, across the industry's most coveted franchises - James Bond, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and blockbusters including Superman II/III, Aliens and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.

This is the beginning of the story behind the man and the stunt scenes that defined a generation of filmmaking. The adventure continues in books two and three.

Available at Amazon ($24.95)

The Ian Fleming James Bond Book Club has revealed book 004: Gunner by Alan Parks.

Released in 2025, this is a compelling blend of historical thriller and noir set in Glasgow in 1941. Parks introduces us to a different kind of operative, one forged in the brutal crucible of the Second World War. What follows is an unvarnished depiction of wartime, our protagonist navigating a city that's as damaged by the war as he is.​

This one is going to be epic! Read more about it at ianfleming.com.
