The Saint and the Fiction Makers (some editions use the hyphenated form "Fiction-Makers") is the title of a 1968 mystery novel featuring the character of Simon Templar, alias "The Saint". The novel is credited to Leslie Charteris, who created the Saint in 1928, but the book was actually authored by Fleming Lee and is adapted from a teleplay by John Kruse writen for a two-part episode of The Saint, "The Fiction Makers", which first aired in December 1968 and was later released as a theatrical film.
The book was first published in the United States by The Crime Club in 1968 (possibly before the episodes aired), and in the United Kingdom by Hodder and Stoughton in 1969.
