Just wanted to let all my fellow Bond nuts know that I have a website devoted to the Young Bond series (and other Bond literary news) -- The Young Bond Dossier.

The site has been up and running for a few months now and it's going strong with almost daily NEWS updates (who would have thought there was so much to say about the Young Bond series).

I’ve also extended the site beyond Young Bond to other current Bond literary happenings like the Centenary Novel, The Moneypenny Diaries, Titan books, and the occasional Casino Royale news (just the good stuff). I've also added an FAQ page .

So (here comes the commercial) when you need news on what's happening in the world of the literary Bond (and beyond), head on over to The Young Bond Dossier.

Cheers. --Zencato 18:00, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Young Bond age ?

What is Bond's age?--Brown Shoes22 04:50, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

He was 13 in SilverFin and I'm pretty sure he was 13 in Blood Fever too. For the third book he'll probably be 14 -- all three take place in 1933. They've never said when his actual date of birth is -- as far as the Higson / Fleming books go (we do know for this series he was born in 1920). Pearson's bio of Bond said November 11, but Higson may make up his own. For the whole debate on Bond's age see James Bond (character) - there's a section devoted to it.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

[edit] Just Wondering

Am I correct in saying that in the Ian Fleming books it said something like Bond lost his virginity at about 15 while on a school trip? Does anyone know how Higson is planning on dealing with that? Just wondering. FreemDeem (talk) 18:56, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
