<!--  ==In bōcum==
* ''[[Count Belisarius]]'' (1938) by [[Robert Graves]] follows the career of the general [[Belisarius]] and recounts the build-up of tension and the riots in some detail.
* ''Theodora and the Emperor'' (1952) by [[Harold Lamb]] is a [[historical fiction]] novel that follows the events of the Nika riots closely, using timelines and characters based on historical documents.
* Much of the plot in the [[fantasy]] novel ''[[The Clocks of Iraz]]'' (1971) by [[L. Sprague de Camp]] turns on mass rioting by rival sporting factions, loosely modeled on the Nika riots.
*In 1974, the [[ITV]] [[science fiction]] [[television]] series ''[[The Tomorrow People]]'' ran a serial entitled ''The Blue and the Green'', citing the role of the D'henagali, an alien energy-based species that fed on human emotions, as the cause of the Blue and Green factions, and the Nika riots, as similar factions re-emerge in the United Kingdom in the early seventies.
* The novel ''[[The Prince (Pournelle)|The Mercenary]]'' (1977) by [[Jerry Pournelle]] is inspired by the riots, recreating the events in the setting of a future colonial world.
* ''[[The Black Company]]'' (1984) by [[Glen Cook]] opens in a city with many characteristics of [[Constantinople]], including a political faction known as the Blues. The opening ends with the city consumed in devastating riots, very similar to the Nika riots.
* A novel by [[David Drake]], ''Counting the Cost'' (1987; from his [[Hammerverse|Hammer's Slammers]] series), is a fairly straightforward retelling of the riots.
* ''In the Heart of Darkness'' (1998), the second book of the [[alternate history]] [[Belisarius series]] by [[Eric Flint]] and David Drake, gives a significantly different outcome of the Nika riots because of the influence of [[Malwa]] as the financiers of the revolt and the introduction of a grenadier company led by [[Belisarius]]' wife, Antonina.
* ''[[The Sarantine Mosaic]]'' (1998, 2000) by [[Guy Gavriel Kay]] is a fantasy novel based on the 6th century Mediterranean world; the two-novel series closely parallels the historical events of the Nika riots.
* ''Eight for Eternity'' (2010) by Mary Reed and Eric Mayer is the eighth in a series of novels about sixth century Constantinople. It uses both fictional and real persons, centered around John "The Eunuch", Lord Chamberlain to Iustinianus I. In a mix of fact and fiction it covers the two weeks of the Nika riots.
* ''Basillissa'' (1940) is a novel by [[John Masefield]] on the early life of Theodora. The Nika riots are pivotal in the plot but are moved forward to before Iustinianus becomes emperor, portrays him as a Blue and makes no mention of any slaughter. It has negligible historical validity -->
