Casino Royale
| Biography |
"Casino Royale is the first James Bond novel by author Ian Fleming. It would eventually pave the way for 11 other novels by Fleming himself in addition to 2 short story anthologies. Since being published in 1953 by Jonathan Cape, Casino Royale has been adapted three times; a 1954 CBS television episode of Climax!, a 1967 film spoof of the same name, and the twenty-first official film in the EON Productions Bond franchise scheduled for release in 2006.
Once the new film is completed, Casino Royale will become the only Ian Fleming work to be adapted on three occasions (currently it, Thunderball, and Moonraker have all been adapted twice).
