About Ian Fleming Publications

Ian Fleming Publications Ltd is Ian Fleming’s family company and owns and administers the literary copyright in his fiction and non-fiction books. The company’s aim is to promote and make available all of Ian Fleming’s books worldwide. Ian Fleming Publications looks after the literary James Bond brand and keeps it alive by the publication of new stories based on the characters Ian created. In recent years, the company has worked with Charlie Higson, Samantha Weinberg and Sebastian Faulks on Young Bond, the Moneypenny trilogy and Devil May Care respectively. Ian Fleming Publications is constantly considering new ways to extend the Bond brand, and plans for a new James Bond story written by Jeffery Deaver are well under way.

Alongside the famous James Bond series, Fleming created the popular children’s classic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, a travel memoir Thrilling Cities and a non-fiction true-crime thriller titled The Diamond Smugglers, and these titles are also under the care of the company he once owned.

Whilst Ian Fleming Publications generally works in partnership with publishers around the world, in 2008 Ian Fleming’s Bond novels were published in e-book form for the Sony Reader and Amazon Kindle in America under Ian Fleming Publications' own imprint, and in 2009 Ian Fleming Publications produced its own hardback editions of Thrilling Cities and The Diamond Smugglers, which are available for purchase through the online shop. More of the titles will be released as e-books this year, and their availability will be extended around the world.
