Well, it's more like there aren't any
yet. I haven't yet had a compelling reason to expand into that particular medium (except once in an
Easter egg). Books also tend to have much more story than TV episodes, which would lead to long fivers. Usually what I'd do instead is work with movie or TV adaptations; for instance, if I wanted to do a fiver of
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, I'd use the movie as source material, since we already have a section for movies and it was a pretty faithful adaptation.
However, I do have a book fiver I'm toying with at the moment. And NAHTMMM has written a number of fivers of Trek novels, which he posts here at the forums.
(Speaking of the forums, welcome to them!)
