Big Young Bond Announcement Coming

The Young Bond Dossier teases a major announcement coming on Monday. That gives fans a whole weekend to speculate! YBD's tantalizingly cryptic pre-announcement concludes, "Sharpen your skills... get ready for War." Does this indicate an imminent announcement of a new series of novels filling in the gap between Young Bond and Casino Royale, telling of his wartime exploits? Doubtful (especially since there's still the Sandhurst years to cover), but wouldn't that be cool?

UPDATE: Erm, never mind. Nothing nearly so cool. The big announcement was just some kind of online game promoting the final book in the series. On the plus side, it seems that Charlie Higson was at least involved in concocting the game...
