Reply to comment by RealJohnGillman in Bullet Train illustrated review by inkscraper

Thank you! We're actually reading the Bullet Train book right now. Interesting to see how it differs from the movie.

Of course — enjoy! As a heads up, Three Assassins (previously adapted as a Japanese film) was the first book (just translated to English after Bullet Train was), but it can still be read as a prequel (to Bullet Train, which was a stand-alone sequel anyway). While Maoh: Juvenile Remix would be a direct sequel to Three Assassins (also including characters from the author’s book Maoh). There is also another book (Ax) and manga (Waltz), but those have yet to be translated into English.

Are you thinking of doing a review of the book for r/books, à la your r/movies review?

I hadn't thought of doing a book review in this style- you've given me something to think about for sure!
