Yes! Thank you lord almighty. You guys don’t realize how long I have been asking for this! I’m so excited!
Sweet!
This is great news, and yes, something many have requested for decades. I love especially that it’s not tied to the movie.
But it is tied to the movie.
@asterstar Set in the same universe, but not an adaptation of the plot, which is a relief.
THE TRAVIS KNIGHT UNIVERSE IS GOING TO BE EPIC!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed on the “wanting these for decades" this is a series that can easily work as a novel series.
As long as they don’t do what they did with the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers novel, and make it all racists and woke, while trying not to be racist. She didn’t understand the character…but this isn’t about that.
Can’t wait!!!!
Yes! I mentioned this in one of my comments earlier 🙂
Should be very interesting.
MOTU has always been a *visual* world for me, but I have to admit I really enjoyed some short stories I’ve read, published by the German fan community.
Can’t wait!
Looks like you can pre-order it now on Amazon. Releases June 02, 2026
@joebot Neat! I can’t wait to see the cover.
I am so excited for all these books!
