Bond does not himself feature until quite late in this novel - the opening chapters, one of Fleming`s most amazing fantasies, creates the nightmare world of SMERSH - the Russian counter-spy organisation, its sickeningly foul section head Rosa Klebb and her top assassin Grant. When the action shifts to Istanbul and Klebb`s plot to destroy the unsuspecting Bond one of the most brilliant chase sequences in fiction (unrivalled even by Buchan or Greene) unfolds. One of the defining books of the Cold War (and one of President Kennedy`s favourite books) From Russia with Love is perhaps even more enjoyable to read now than when it first became a huge international bestseller.

The arrival of James Bond in Modern Classics at last acknowledges Fleming`s remarkable place in British fiction. The creator of an entire genre and the inventor of the most widely recognised figure in British literature since Sherlock Holmes, Fleming has a presence and flair now denied to most other writers of the 1950s. These three novels show Fleming at his peak - it would be hard to argue whether Rosa Klebb, Dr No or Goldfinger have greater grandeur or repulsiveness - with three plots of deranged implausibility and many of the dazzling set-pieces that made the early films so memorable.

Fifty years (and five billion dollars in ticket sales) ago, the dashing Scottish actor Sean Connery declared suavely that he was "Bond, James Bond." Thus began a cinematic series unlike any other. In November 2012, Skyfall, the 23 movie in what is seen as the authorized line of Bond films, will be released, with Daniel Craig (the sixth Bond) again in the lead role. The world will once more stream to the theaters for another dose of Bond. Life was on the scene in the swinging `60s when James Bond became a cultural icon (in fact, when we put the gold-painted actress Shirley Eaton on the cover in 1964, we helped him along), and now Life tells the whole story in this commemorative book. Ian Fleming, a high-ranking officer in British Naval...
