General Notes
- The Italian Space: 1999 novelisations are actually large format hardbacks which also contained a number of photographs, similar in format to the popular "storybooks" that have been published to tie in with movies and television series over the years like the various Star Wars movies, Max Headroom and the Battlestar Galactica pilot.
- The contents of this book were originally published as part of the very first Italian Space: 1999 novelisation, Spazio 1999.
- In the UK Breakaway was novelised in EC Tubb's Breakaway.
