Sebastian Faulks, a reputable novelist, was commissioned to write the latest Bond book.

备受尊敬的小说家塞巴斯蒂安·福克斯被指定创作最新一部邦德作品。

There was Justin Cartwright's very funny “Other People's Money” and Sebastian Faulks's “A Week in December”.

这类书还有贾斯廷·卡特赖特的《别人的钱》，写得非常有趣，以及塞巴斯蒂安·福克斯的《12月的一个星期》。

Faulks is not an author known for writing thrillers, so there was some speculation that he would struggle to write a Bond novel successfully.

福克斯不以写惊险小说见长，因此有人怀疑其能否创作出一部成功的邦德小说。

Two recent examples, John Lanchester's “Capital” and Sebastian Faulks's “A Week in December”, fail to define their age as Dickens or Conan Doyle did.

以最近的两本小说为例，约翰·兰彻斯特的《首都》和塞巴斯蒂安·福克斯的《十二月的一周》未能像狄更斯或柯南道尔的作品那样，成为一个时代的印记。
