Male power fantasies. I've heard here on /lit/ that they're not unbearably horrible in terms of writing, and that they can actually be kind of enjoyable.

I find your post extremely problematic. The use of the word "heard" is triggering to those with auditory difficulties. Check your ear-privilege.

Sean Connery made the movies good, but the books are beyond awful.

I've read Moonraker and Dr. No.
Dr. No: Ok book, underwhelming though
Moonraker: Well constructed, interesting, impressive ending and plot devices.

If you're in the market for a series of entertaining reads, full of derring-do, random fucking and aspirational masculinity, I'd steer you to the superior Flashman series—Fraser is a lot more self aware/ironic than Fleming

Meh. Fleming was trying to emulate Raymond Chandler but ended up emulating Mickey Spillane.
