        I didn't like Moore much either.  Really didn't like Dalton.
Lazenby was OK.  Connery was the original (Obviously).  But by far Peirce
Brosnan is so far the best Bond IMHO.  I thought he did play Bond when I was
five years old and watched him in Remington Steele.  That was back in the
'80s.
        Never read the books.  I was always to busy reading what my private
school told me to.  Mostly junk that wasn't worth the time to look at the
pictures, some classics tho -Lord of the Flies, Day of the Jackal (Highly
recommended if you've seen the Jackal with Bruce Willis and like spy stuff).
My favourite book was my BIG BOOK OF CARS with an AUDI in it (Yes I
prostituted the content into this one)
