Official novels

There are currently four Lost-related novels published. As part of the expanded universe of Lost, they are considered semi-canonical.

Three of these are set on the island:
- Endangered Species by Cathy Hapka.
- Secret Identity by Cathy Hapka.
- Signs of Life by Frank Thompson.

- There was a fourth novel set to be released on May 1, 2006, and could be pre-ordered on amazon.com. However, the book was never released and the novel's page was removed. At the time, the book was titled Lost 4.
One is a metafictional novel, supposedly written by a flight 815 passenger:
- Bad Twin by Gary Troup.
According to the ARG, Gary Troup also wrote another book, The Valenzetti Equation, but it exists only within the Lost universe.
