The Professionals is a series of fifteen novelizations by Robert Holdstock, published between 1978 and 1982. The books adapt episodes of the popular British television series about CI5, a fictional law enforcement unit. Titles like Where The Jungle Ends, Stake Out, and Spy Probe reflect the action-espionage content of the show.
Holdstock wrote these tie-in novels under a pseudonym as commercial work alongside his original fiction. The fifteen books represent a substantial body of work in their own right, though they are rarely discussed alongside his literary fantasy and science fiction.
