That's my best shot ... I've indicated where I am unsure, especially regarding
the date of the Thunderball screenplay/novel.

Other James Bond books:
  "A Quantum of Solace" - in "For Your Eyes Only" (1960)
  "James Bond in New York" - in "Thrilling Cities" (Fleming) (1963)
  "Colonel Sun" (Robert Markham aka Kingsley Amis) (1968)
  "License Renewed" (John Gardner) (1981)
  "For Special Services" (John Gardner) (1982)
  "Icebreaker" (John Gardner) (1983)
  "No Deals, Mr. Bond" (John Gardner) (198?)
  "Nobody Lives Forever" (John Gardner) (198?)
  there is at least one other Gardner book, but I can't seem to remember 
  it/them right now.

Maybe someone else can take it from here ... this is fun.
