Many book fans also follow television shows because let's face it, we're obsessed with stories. So imagine our glee when a beloved TV series then releases books related to the show? How could things get any better?
The latest show to enter the written world has only had one season; it's still a baby in the world of television. Yet it was so popular, that it was swiftly renewed for a second season and now has books!
There are witches and demons in this show, as well as the four horsemen of the apocalypse and it started with an extremely strong first episode. The mythology in the show is unique and intriguing and Ichabod's confusion at every day items is hilarious as Tom Mison proves why he was hired for the role. Lieutenant Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) helps him adjust to the modern day whilst he aids her in the fight to save Sleepy Hollow. Flashbacks reveal more of Crane's history and explains a lot of what occurs in the story in current day.
The books that are to be released consist of The Secret Journal of Ichabod Crane and Sleepy Hollow:Children of the Revolution. In the former, Ichabod reveals his thoughts and feelings on the new time and society, as well as his relationships with some of the new people in his life. Also included will be hidden case files, clues and photos that he picked up on the way. The latter will follow the story of the show, starting with a coven of witches who want to bring back a vengeful witch from the past.
Judging from the show's interpretation of Ichabod's struggle in the modern world, it is not surprising that these hilarious quirks of his have made it into book format, and with all the mythology in the show, there is a lot of ripe information that can be used to create highly entertaining stories.
Both books will be available to own in September 2014, though pre-orders are already being accepted. Go order your copies now! Season two of the show is currently set for 22nd September 2014, so if you haven't watched it yet, you have plenty of time to catch up.
