"If Carlton is in top three, then Hellebore must win the run, if he wants to win the cup."

"In other words, if Hellebore doesn't win, he does not have any chances?"

"Right, but I think he wins Carlton, so only one who is left is you. Are you capable of that, James?"

"I don't know", James answered. He put food in his mouth and thought about it at the same time when biting tasteless mush. He tried to ate as much as possible to get the energy for the run, but food was as lousy as usual. Stew which had chewy chicken bites, a grey gummy pasty, a pile of old peas and watery cooked potatoes."

"They were eating fried eggs and sausages that they had cooked on the little electric stove out in the passage under the watchful eye of the boys’ maid. Everyone bought extra food at the School Stores or at Jack’s or Rowland’s in the town; this was absolutely necessary to stop the boys from starving to death, as the meals that Codrose served up were almost completely inedible."

"Best meal of the day, breakfast,’ said Charmian once she’d ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, toast and marmalade. ‘Sets you up for the day.’

The waitress came over and asked if they would like a pot of tea and Charmian exploded.

‘Tea? Good God, no. It’s mud. How the British ever built an empire drinking the filthy stuff is beyond me. And if we carry on drinking it, I’ve no doubt that the empire won’t last much longer. No, a civilised person drinks coffee."

"Charmian had roasted a chicken for lunch and they ate it with steamed carrots, potatoes and spring greens, freshly picked, firm and brightly coloured. James savoured every single mouthful. After the muck at Eton, it was like eating the food of the gods.

‘Do you know anything about a boy called Alfie Kelly?’ James asked as Aunt Charmian brought a big apple pie to the table.

‘Dreadful business,’ said his aunt, cutting into the pie and releasing a delicious cloud of steam that smelt of apples and sugar and cinnamon."

007 Book: SilverFin (2005)

Bond book: SilverFin

Author: Charlie Higson

Publication date: 3 March 2005

SilverFin is the first novel in the Young Bond series that depicts Ian Fleming's superspy James Bond as a teenager in the 1930s. Because Ian Fleming never explicitly said when James Bond was born, Ian Fleming Publications and Charlie Higson chose the year 1920 as his birth year. SilverFin takes place in 1933.

SilverFin is broken up into three parts in addition to a prologue. In the prologue, an unnamed school boy is attacked by eels, attracted to a bleeding fishhook cut, while fishing in Loch Silverfin. The first part of the book chronicles James Bond's starting attendance at Eton College, which is one of the best schools in England. The second part of the novel details the spring break. James travels to Scotland to meet with his Aunt Charmian. It is also in this part of the novel that Higson reveals the details of Bond's parents' death, first mentioned in Ian Fleming's You Only Live Twice.

A graphic novel adaptation of SilverFin written by Charlie Higson and illustrated by artist Kev Walker was released by Puffin Books in the UK on 2 October 2008 and by Disney Hyperion in the U.S. on 18 May 2010.
