Are these even based on books anymore? Some like Moonraker had a book written to come out with the film. But since Skyfall some films have no book that it is based on or published anything. The series started out being based on books by Ian Fleming and since then many authors have taken the books over and many stories published were not made into a film. Though all of Ian’s books were made into movies.

After THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS (1987), Bond producers came up with movies not based on Fleming’s stories...There is one exception. Casino Royale (2006) is based on Fleming’s novel.

John Gardner, a British author, wrote several Bond novels during 1980s. I enjoyed reading many of his Bond novels.

Raymond Benson also wrote some Bond novels.
