New Booklist - The Name is Bond, James Bond

A new booklist, celebrating the world of Agent 007, upon the 50th anniversary of the launching of the film franchise, has been posted to the BookGuide booklists page.

Scott C., one of BookGuide's mystery and thriller fans, has contributed a brand-new fiction list entitled The Name is Bond...James Bond, and covers every authorized "official" Bond novel, from those written by his creator Ian Fleming through the recent new releases by such authors as Sebastian Faulks and Jeffery Deaver.

In addition to the mainstream novels, the list includes the Young James Bond series, written for young adults, and the Miss Moneypenny novels, focusing on M's secretary and her fascination for the spy life.

Finally, since this list was inspired by the film series' 50th anniversary this year, you'll also find all of the official and not-so-official James Bond films, from 1962's Dr. No through 2008's Quantum of Solace.

If you like your vodka martinis shaken, not stirred, your sidearms of the Walther PPK variety, and your villains of the world-threatening megalomaniac flavor, you need to explore the world of James Bond!
