I’m still getting going here, so please be patient as I build up the content and shape of the site. The same will be true about Thunderball, even though the story and plot was a collaboration between Fleming, Kevin McClory and Jack Whittingham, (and others Ernie Cureo, etc) the novel itself, with its characterizations and descriptions is very much the work of Ian Fleming. I’ll treat the book as authentic Fleming, however as it was largely his work. Fleming had finished his early drafts of the book, and according to various accounts, it was finished by others. I will treat The Man With The Golden Gun novel as a full Ian Fleming work, even though the author died before final work was completed on it. I’m only concerned with Ian Fleming’s James Bond. Neither did the non-Fleming book sequels. To this site, the James Bond movies never existed. To me, James Bond and Ian Fleming lived in a pretty terrific time, and I’d like to revisit and capture that time and the experiences and tastes of that postwar era. No films, no Bond books written by anyone else. This site is only about the world of James Bond as it concerns the Ian Fleming novels.
