43 Post-Fleming periods A - Kingsley Amis' novel (James Bond - The Books)

Well-known British author Kingsley Amis, was offered a chance to continue
the series after Fleming's death. He was originally credited under the
pseudonym Robert Markham, as part of a plan to have multiple authors use
that alias over time, but the immediate response was lackluster and he
produced only one book.

It has been opined that he 'completed' "The Man With The Golden Gun"
following Fleming's death by some sources. Others claim Glidrose had it
finished and merely had him critique it. Hopefully the truth can be
verified.
