    Thanks @DarthDimi !

    You are right btw, last Saturday my son was born, so I think it will take some time before I get these rankings together.

    In the meantime, everyone is more than welcome to send me their ranking (in PM please), I won’t start counting them until I have posted otherwise :)

    Thanks very much folks!

    @DarthDimi we’re all doing well, thanks! Concerning the name, I shall give you a hint: it’s the French version of the title of a Luchino Visconti film in which an actor from GF also co-stars ;)

    @Creasy47 Quite right, well done! :D

    @DarthDimi, you guessed the film correctly, but in this case we went for the French variant ;)

    Congratulations to you both! That's so exciting. We're all getting old and having a lot of new dads around here in the past year or two, myself included.

    @R1s1ngs0n

    It’s been quite a ride so far, but we’re getting more and more accustomed to our new roles, so I think I’ll start counting the results soon.

    I might have been ambitious using the word ‘soon’, however, it appears I will have some spare time on Sunday, so I plan on doing the count then.

    Should anyone still want to join, please pm me your Fleming novel rankings before Sunday morning (Paris time).

    See you guys soon and thanks for your patience.

    Well I’ve finally been able to start counting these. We’re just waiting for two participants to include the short story collections and then I’ll be able to finish the count.

    15 rankings have been counted so far, with two more we will have had 17 participants in total. Not quite the majority of the Mi6 Community members, but a great lot nonetheless. Thank you all for Your contributions!

    17 isn't bad at all. I believe there are many Bond fans out there not knowing the novels.
