* Revision: Some aspects of Bond's past established by Fleming are expanded upon by sticking to the letter of what he wrote rather than the intention - most notably, Bond was established as having stayed at Eton for two halves (terms, in Eton parlance), but Higson reveals they weren't actually consecutive as he was recovering from injury, giving young Bond more time to have adventures in. The contradictory mentions that he started working for the Secret Service either before or after the war are resolved by the fact that he "worked" for them in unusual circumstances as a teenager, before the war.
