Original Novels
The Girl from U.N.C.L.E. was featured in five original novels, only two of which were published in the United States:
- The Birds of a Feather Affair by Michael Avallone
- The Blazing Affair by Michael Avallone
- The Global Globules Affair - Simon Latter (Published in United Kingdom and in France as L'affaire des Globules)
- The Golden Boats of Tatadata Affair - Simon Latter (Published in United Kingdom only)
- The Cornish Pixie Affair - Peter Leslie (Published in United Kingdom only)
Unlike the series, the novels were quite serious, with the plot of The Birds of a Feather Affair ending in tragedy for April when the 'innocent' character usually featured in the TV show dies despite what April does to stop the villains.
A Girl from U.N.C.L.E. digest magazine was also briefly published, which included novellas not published elsewhere. Gold Key Comics also published a short-lived (5 issue) comic book.
