What it says in the title: describe the Bond books in a single sentence. Two at most. The shorter the better.
Casino Royale: Baccarat and balls. And bitch.
From Russia with Love: Let’s just see what happens if we spring this Russian spy trap.
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service: Tear out the last page and it’s a happy end.
The Man with the Golden Gun: How to get your readers to whistle.
Over to you, ladies and gentlemen…
Live and Let Die: This was okay in 1954
You Only Live Twice: Spoiler; Everyone dies
For Your Eyes Only: Bitesized Bond
The Spy Who Loved Me- this wasn’t ok in 1962
Thunderball - pugilism, plagerism and plutonium under da sea.
Octopussy and the living daylights- The Good, The Bad and The Ugly ( though not necessarily in that order)
You Only Live Twice: Depressed man finds purpose only to be reborn.
Moonraker: Nazis with moustaches build a rocket. This story goes nuclear.
Diamonds are Forever: Bond breaks Vegas. Two brothers, two killers, too bad.
Dr No: Bond fights a super villain on an island base. Has a shit ending.
Casino Royale: Hero wins at cards but loses car, girlfriend and ability to sit comfortably.
Dr No: Quirky Asian recluse’s grand plans end in a crapload of troubles.
Goldfinger: German businessman declares Ft Knox his “bank”, but early withdrawal leads to substantial penalties.
The Spy Who Loved Me: Tale of romance and intrigue told from the point of view of a woman, by a misogynist.
You Only Live Twice: Man who got away with nuclear terrorism is executed for evil gardening.
OHMSS: Jaded womanizer finds the one female who can make him believe in love again. Three guesses how it ends.
These are more like capsule reviews than synopses, but here goes:
Licence Renewed: OHMSS meets the China Syndrome. It;s not 1965 anymore -get used to it.
For Special Services: Bond’s Saab goes to Texas. “Great reviews, John - now take what worked the first time and do it again, only more so!”
Icebreaker: Neo nazis and double-agents in Finland. What do you mean, Alistair MacLean didn’t write it?
Role of Honour: Bond learns to use a computer and fly an airship. If you’re waiting for a wow finish after so slow a start, you’re reading the wrong book.
Nobody Lives For Ever: Colonel Sun and YOLT meet in Key West. Maybe it is 1965 again!
No Deals, Mr. Bond: From Ireland to Hong Kong to rescue double agents. See RoH re: wow finishes.
Scorpius: Religious suicide bombers. What do you mean Scorpius isn’t Adnon Kashoggi?!
Win, Lose or Die: Bond is the ruler of the Queen’s nay-vee. Whoever said about OHMSS “Ian Fleming has never written anything better” should say it again for Mr, Gardner.
BrokenClaw: Half-Chinese, half-Blackfoot villain. Exotic concept only to Europeans.
The Man From Barbarossa: A briefing too far, Why not just tell Bond “It’s a lot like Operation Icebreaker”?
Death is Forever: No Deals, Mr. Bond in Europe. There’s probably another double- or triple-agent in there somewhere.
Never Send Flowers: Bond tracks a serial killer through Europe. When did this become his job?
Seafire: Neo-nazis in Europe again. Back to Bond’s real job - a little too late.
COLD: Mafia teams up with secret militias in two novellas for the price of one, with the same ending in each. Ever wonder what happens to Bond’s old girlfriends?
(BTW, thank you, Mr. Gardner, for your incomparable contribution to the canon. RIP.)
OHMSS: (to use an internet style reaction) FLEMING SHOULD BE BOYCOTTED!! MARRIES OFF BOND AND RETCONS HIM INTO BEING SCOTTISH BECAUSE OF THAT D-LIST MILKMAN
Who he? Related by any chance to Alistair MacLean? His neater cousin perhaps?

But let’s see what you can do with the 1967 003 1/2: The Adventures of James Bond Junior, Geoffrey Jenkins’ unpublished Per Fine Ounce, Cyril Connolly’s Bond Strikes Camp, and Harvard Lampoon’s Alligator and Toadstool.
CARTE BLANCHE – 007 encounters a man who thinks of everything, a man who’s aroused at the sight of decay, and a woman who is willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wants–it’s Bond rebooted 21st Century-style.
SOLO – Bond finds himself smack in the middle of a West African civil war over ownership of huge oil reserves–talk about a modern day black gold rush.
SHOOT TO KILL – Lights, camera, action! Bond pulls the plug on a Hollywood movie mogul who dabbles in snuff films.
TRIGGER MORTIS – Bond gets into Jeopardy, finds himself on the wrong end of an all-out motel assault, and rises from the grave to save the American space program and New York City.
HEADS YOU DIE – A man with a concrete fist, a veiled lady, and a crazed biologist concoct a plot to topple the British government by spreading death via cold, hard cash laced with poison–giving new meaning to the phrase “dead money.”
STRIKE LIGHTNING – A Nazi plan to win wars with new and advanced weaponry gets short-circuited in its tracks courtesy of a resourceful kid named Bond–so much for German efficiency.
RED NEMESIS – A gift from the grave leads Bond to Moscow and back to England to stop a Communist plot to cause a tsunami to drown London leading to a Russian invasion–talk about a red menace.
FOREVER AND A DAY – In his debut mission as 007, Bond investigates his predecessor’s death and stops a giant drug smuggling operation during which he encounters the repulsive Scipio and the sweet Sixtine.
Challenge accepted! Although of those listed I’ve only read 003 1/2: The Adventures of James Bond Jr. As a result, I had to look up the synopsis of Bond Strikes Camp and Alligator, but I couldn’t find anything about Toadstool. Anyway, here we go:
PER FINE OUNCE – South African gold smuggling, baobab tree coffins, and Lake Fundudzi crocodiles highlight the Holy Grail of Bond novels.
THE HEART OF ERZULIE – A voodoo cult terrorizes a Haitian community under the threat of the love goddess–that’s some bad mojo.
SOME ARE BORN GREAT – Bond plays a winning hand to get the best of his nanny before bedtime.
003 1/2: THE ADVENTURES OF JAMES BOND JR. – Bond’s nephew investigates the mysterious goings on at nearby Hazeley Hall and learns that he isn’t half bad at the family business.
THE KILLING ZONE – When his best friend is murdered, Bond disobeys orders and seeks revenge on the man responsible–a drug kingpin named Doberman–while finding the treasure of the Sierra Madre in the guise of Lotta Head.
ALLIGATOR – Bond sets his sights on a card cheating, building-stealing, purple-obsessed villain named Lacertus–see you later, Alligator.
BOND STRIKES CAMP – M orders Bond to cross-dress and attempts to seduce him–or in other words STOP GETTING BOND WRONG!
