The Spy Who Loved Me book is a clear departure from the previous Bond books of Ian Fleming, in that Bond is not the central character. Instead the central character and narrator is "Vivienne Michel," a young British woman who has ended up running a cheap motel in the Adirondack Mountains to pay for a trip through America. The first section of the novel deals with her sheltered yet unhappy past; the second with the danger she encounters in the motel, and the third with her rescue by a mysterious stranger (Bond on his way back from a mission).
In order to maintain the fiction of Vivienne Michel (and, some critics suggest, distance himself from a book with which he was unsatisfied), Fleming gave "Michel" co-author credit and later claimed that the manuscript had been mailed to him from a mysterious source. The most sexually explicit of Fleming's novels, it was banned in some countries and was not released in a paperback edition in Britain until several years after Fleming's death.

The Spy Who Loved Me is the tenth official James Bond movie and the third to star Roger Moore as Bond. Fleming was never terribly happy with the plot of the book and so only gave permission for the title to be used. Consequently the film tells a very different story, and was subsequently novelised by Christopher Wood. As such, it is considered the first wholly original Bond film.
