Bowdlerization: As discussed here, several of Fleming's less-sensitive moments were changed or deleted outright when this book first hit the United States. 
"He disagreed with something that ate him."
Bond One-Liner: Not from Bond himself (still far from the quipping-and-killing machine the movies would make him), but the villains make a pithy little commentary on the shark-mangled Felix:. Badass Bystander: The Pullman porter who helps keep Bond and Solitaire safe on the train to Florida. Bad to the Last Drop: At once point, Bond and Solitaire are forced to recoup at a local Greasy Spoon, which serves them this alongside an equally terrible breakfast. From his Goldeneye, Fleming had visited Port Royal in Jamaica, which was once the home port of Sir Henry Morgan. Author Appeal: Fleming had a lifelong interest in pirates, from the books he read as a child to films like Captain Blood. Artistic Licence – Law: Strictly speaking, Felix Leiter would be outside his jurisdiction for much of the Mr Big case, since the CIA cannot operate inside the US. An Arm and a Leg: Felix Leiter literally loses one of each when the Robber drops him into a Shark Pool. So much that when he was younger, he wrote a few pieces on Dixieland jazz for the New York Amsterdam News. AM/FM Characterization: Felix is a jazz fan. Though it's debatable whether this really made any difference, since by that point the bad guys had already spotted him. Big's island even after he's planted the mine on Mr. Always Save the Girl: Part of why Bond swims on to Mr. Here, both the good and bad guys have a lot more chances to resort to violence, and that's not getting into all the hostile wildlife Bond has to deal with. 
Actionized Sequel: While Casino Royale is far from violence-free, Bond really only gets into one "fight" (which he loses).The novel would later become the basis of the eighth Bond film and parts of it would later be incorporated into For Your Eyes Only and Licence to Kill. The case later takes him to Florida and then Jamaica, and pits him against the Harlem crime boss Mr. Upon returning from leave after the events of Casino Royale, Bond is dispatched to New York City to investigate the sudden appearance of smuggled gold coins in Harlem. The second James Bond novel by Ian Fleming, published in 1954.
