- bioText:
Ian Lancaster Fleming was born in London in 1908. His first job was at Reuters news agency, after which he worked briefly as a stockbroker before working in Naval Intelligence during World War Two. His first novel, Casino Royale, was published in 1953 and was an instant success. Fleming went on to write thirteen other Bond books as well as two works of non-fiction and the children's classic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The Bond books have earned praise from figures such as Raymond Chandler, who called Fleming 'the most forceful and driving writer of thrillers in England' and President Kennedy, who named From Russia with Love as one of his favorite books. The books inspired a hugely successful series of film adaptations which began in 1961 with the release of Dr No.He was married to Ann O'Neill with whom he had a son, Caspar. He died in 1964.

- premium: False
- source: Kingsley Amis
- content: "Fleming has set his stamp on the story of action and intrigue...His proper place in literature is with those demi-giants of an earlier day: Jules Verne, Rider Haggard, Conan Doyle."
- premium: True
- source:
- content: YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE is a departure from the more familiar James Bond installments; in this one Fleming gives Bond a bit more character development. And no matter how dated the material, with its references to President Kennedy, Khrushchev, and the Cold War, the plot stands the test of time and never fails to deliver pure entertainment. Robert Whitfield carries the exact measure of British inflection while delivering the famous Bond "off-the-cuff" humor. He deftly transforms the precise narrative and dialogue into the distinctive characters of the Japanese Tiger Tanaka, the Aussie Dikko Henderson, and Bond's nemesis, the German Blofeld. Whitfield IS James Bond. M.F.D. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine

- content: Legions of Ian Fleming fans who debate the comparative merits of different portrayers of James Bond have a new contender. Narrator Martin Jarvis is every bit as suave and forceful as any movie actor--better even than Sean Connery because he can play every character. Here, a depressed 007, emotionally undone by the murder of his wife, is sent to Japan to convince the chief of the Japanese secret service to ally himself with England. Jarvis's acting chops are on full display as Bond's mood gradually lifts and he alternately charms and battles an international cast, all of whom sound precisely as you hoped they would. This is pure entertainment, perfectly done. A.C.S. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine
