Ico: Castle in the Mist is a novelization of Ico, written by famed Japanese author Miyabe Miyuki. The novel has not been translated into English (though it has been translated into at least Thai and Korean), and there are plans to release it in North America.

The novel is Miyuki's personal interpretation of the story, expanding greatly on the Ico mythos and explaining how many of the characters came to be. The novel is thus considered to be non-canonical.

"Castle in the Mist" is also the name of one of the songs on the game's soundtrack.

A new version of this novel, with the same title was released on June 19, 2008. It features brand new cover art, done especially for the re-release, by Neonvision. It also includes a post card of the same cover art and a mini-poster of Ico and Yorda. The novel was published under Kodansha. There are plans to release the novel in English on july 19 2011.
