More Books, Bond this time

Blipper Arell, and I, had a little conversation yesterday about my book blip so I thought I'd enhance that one with my Bond collection. I've blipped it a few years ago but I don't think I got the non-Fleming books in.
The smaller books, behind the crocodile, are all the Ian Fleming books. The rest are by various authors including the Young Bond books by Charlie Higson. The Young Bond books are really quite good, a cross between Bond and Boys Own adventures but well written.
Some of the others are also very good although, when Colonel Sun was published I swore never to read a Bond book that was not by Ian Fleming. It was many years before I dipped my toe into that area and I've found them very good reading, but still think the Fleming books are the best.
The EXTRA is four books that were bought for me as birthday and Christmas presents. Interesting, and packed with information and facts, but not novels.
