Many. They are okay at best. Read either of the Ian Fleming short story collections, or read Quantam of Solace which contains all his short stories. If you like those, read his novels in order. And yes that does include Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
He wrote the novel Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Fleming spent the last few decades of his life as a journalist and would spend his vacations writing novels. He did a few distinct departures from the norm, and a kids book about a magic car was one of them. The other big one was The Spy Who Loved Me. That one is a Bond book from the point of view of the Bond girl.
Holy shit, that movie was a childhood fever dream where I always wondered if that really existed, knowing it was based off a book by Fleming? Whole different level of what the fuck
