Hi Bond Wikia! I'm basically a big Bond addict, with a special interest in the novels, the early Connery films and the (sadly) shortlived Dalton era. I don't do Gardner, Benson, Higson or Faulks and frankly don't consider them legitimate entries in the novel series. Personally, I view Faulks' novel as a prime example of the dangers of cloning. I do rather like Amis' Colonel Sun though and consider it the best post-Fleming novel.
My specialist areas (which I tend to focus on editing, as one can quickly see by a perusal of my editing history) include Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, the SPECTRE organisation, movie production details, The Fleming Novels and Colonel Sun.

AndyTGD's favorite Bond Novels
- From Russia With Love (Without a doubt, Fleming's magnum opus - at least, in my opinion)
- On Her Majesty's Secret Service
- Thunderball
- Dr. No
- For Your Eyes Only
- Casino Royale
- Colonel Sun
AndyTGD's favorite Bond Actors
- Sean Connery
- Daniel Craig (Even though he strikes me as more of a Red Grant than a Bond, he has thoroughly redeemed himself with Skyfall)
- Timothy Dalton
- Roger Moore (Not really Fleming's Bond, but he has a charm which is hard to dislike)
- George Lazenby (If only because of that final scene; the rest of his acting was rather wooden)
- Pierce Brosnan (I must confess, I have never been partial to Brosnan's soapish acting)
