James Bond is a character created by Ian Fleming in the novel "Casino Royale" in 1954. Fleming died in 1964 leaving 12 novels and two collections of short stories. Subsequent Bond novels have been written by Kingsley Amis (under the pseudonym Robert Markham), John Gardner, Raymond Benson and now Charlie Higson (who is writing the adventures of Young James Bond in a series of novels aimed at the teen market) and Sebastian Faulks.
In 1962 Albert Broccoli and Harry Saltzman made the first James Bond film, "Dr. No" and a franchise of films was born, there has also been two un-official Bond films (due to rights issues) and an early one-off TV production of "Casino Royale".
