In print

There has been a reasonable number of books published over the years with a connection to Kiwi TV. Most of the fiction books are reprints of the source work with some images from the TV adaptation and a "As Seen on TV" banner, but amongst them are a few original "Based on the TV series" novels. Thanks to Geoff for the suggestions so far, and if you know of any book that we are missing please add a comment!
