All Fleming's Books in order, followed by Colonel Sun, The Young Bond novels in order, Devil May Care, Carte Blanche. I have the "authorised Biography of James Bond" on order, then I plan to read John Gardner's books.

All the Fleming novels in order. Then Gardner, then Benson. After that I went back and found the Markham and Pearson. By then the Higsons, Westbrooks were coming out so everything after that is in order of their release.

I am going to read all of Fleming's books in order, I have decided. I ordered Casino Royale and I can't wait for it to get here, except I need to finish A Game of Thrones first.. :/ and I don't like that book.
