Craig and her insistence on him for the role against everyone's wishes,
including Michael Wilson's, who finally had to give in and maybe even
got bribed into doing so." -- WQ, 3/1/06

Is this a hard cover or paperback series? US or UK? Who is the publisher?
What stories are collected in For Your Eyes Only? I hope all of the short
stories.

Back story on the 'new' paperbacks here:
http://www.mi6.co.uk/sections/articles/collecting_penguin_20 06_preview.php3
Personally, I'm most looking forward to Mo Hayder's intro to YOLT.
Whereas some of the author intro links with their novel seem a bit
tenuous, Hayder's novel "Tokyo" seems to have been genuinely influenced
by Fleming. Even the cover art featured a bleeding red dot.
Cheers,
