The Story of the Phantom
The Story of the Phantom is a series of 15 novels based on Lee Falk's Phantom stories, published by Avon Publications in the U.S. These were published from 1972 to 1975, and some were written by Lee Falk himself. Ron Goulart, using the pseudonym of Frank S. Shawn, later remarked that Falk originally asked Alfred Bester, who had previously worked on the Phantom comic strip when Falk served in the army, to ghost-write a few novels. Bester was not interested, and recommended Goulart for Falk. The covers for the novels were done by George Wilson, previously known for his work on US Phantom comic books. Many of the books were translated into many foreign languages. The complete list of books is:
