   As I mentioned, there have been others since Amis and Gardner, including   
   Raymond Benson, Sebastian Faulks, Jeffery Deaver, William Boyd, Anthony   
   Horowitz, and Charlie Higson. See   
   https://ianfleming.com/collection/new-james-bond/ and   
   https://ianfleming.com/collection/new-james-bond/page/2/ for their   
   novels as listed by Ian Fleming Publications.   
      
   That's not even including the authors who were authorized to write   
   spinoff novels like the "Moneypenny Diaries" and "Young Bond" series;   
   I'm just counting the authors who wrote the "main" James Bond   
   continuation novels.
