Posted June 15th, 2012

Ian Fleming Publications will be joining in with the 50th anniversary celebrations of the James Bond film series. This coming September, they will be launching an audio book series of all 12 original Ian Fleming novels, read by some notable British figures.

Among the readers are Kenneth Branagh, who will be reading The Man With the Golden Gun, Toby Stephens, who will be reading From Russia With Love and Bill Nighly who will be reading Moonraker. The titles will be available for individual pre-order starting August 1st, and will be available via download or CD purchase from September 6th, 2012.

The full list of readers follows, with the novels presented in the order they were written.

• Casino Royale read by Dan Stevens

The project has been lead by Ian Fleming Publications director Enyd Williams, and Lucy Fleming, and has taken over three years to organise. AudioGO, previously known as BBC Audiobooks, is in charge of the technical side of things.
