No, but Peter Gunn, at least, was novelized, by Henry Kane.
I've got it, but have never read it.
Kinda speaking of which, are there any worthwhile
novelizations?
Timothy Harris's Heatwave, which was based on a friend's
unproduced screenplay, was very good. I keep meaning to read
Alan Sharp's Night Moves -- which came first, his screenplay
or hs novel? It started as an original screenplay, didn't it?
The movie tie-in paperback appears to be the first printing
of the novel.
