Attack on Titan light novels now available for digital!

Calling all e-bookworms and Attack on Titan fanatics! Breaking news! On December 4, four light novels based on Hajime Isayama's hit manga series finally become available as ebooks on digital platforms BookWalker, Google Play, iBooks, Kindle, and nook.

So what are they about? The Attack on Titan light novels officially take place in the same universe as the main manga series, except the timeline and characters are a bit different. Attack on Titan: Before the Fall is a prequel to the main manga series and the basis for the Attack on Titan: Before the Fall manga. It's about the earlier days of mankind living in fear of the Titans, and how, to combat them, people created the Vertical Maneuvering Equipment.  Attack on Titan: The Harsh Mistress of the City is a 2-part novel series about a young commander (and one strong female protagonist!) Rita who is on a mission to reconnect a small district that was cut off from the rest of civilization when Wall Maria was destroyed by the Titans.  Which means, the continuity between the light novels and manga stories is legit! Read both light-novel series to fully connect up with the Attack on Titan manga universe.

Called “a child of Titan” and essentially hated by the people inside the walls, Kuklo despite his horrible beginnings and a single-functioning eye, also seems to grow unnaturally fast. He parts himself from his past and gambles on the fate of humanity by enlisting in the Survey Corps. And here with his strength and determination Kuklo survives and thrives. But to accomplish his goals he must get his hands on the Vertical Maneuvering Equipment. Although the gear is still imperfect and causes a troublesome incident for him, whether it is because it is his fate—or because of his past—he finds he is able to fight against the Titans.
