It's the only one I read, but I had started reading it because, from what I understood, the Daniel Craig reboot was an attempt to have the movies be closer to the source material.
Naturally, they didn't have the modern technology that they do now, but the plot twists, torture, and character motivations are the same.
In Dr No, the first Bond movie, using Bond's hair to see if someone is in the room was taken from the first book, but nothing else was similar.
