Ian Fleming wrote numerous novels and short stories based on James Bond 007, the fictional British spy created by him in 1952, and after his death in 1964, further literary adventures were written by Kingsley Amis (pseudonym Robert Markham), John Pearson, John Gardner, Raymond Benson, and Charlie Higson. In addition, Christopher Wood wrote two screenplay novelisations and other authors have also written various unofficial permutations of the character. Although initially made famous through the novels, James Bond is now best known from the EON Productions film series.
