I was very excited to learn The Librarians was getting a set of novel tie-ins, as it's one of my favorite series. This story follows one of Flynn's early adventures, back when he was the sole Librarian, and connects it to a case that Eve and the LIT's are working in the present day. My high hopes and expectations were not dashed. The same imagination that goes into each episode of the show was found within the pages of the book. The characters all sounded like themselves and stayed true to their characterizations and personalities. The descriptions were beautiful and well-written, making me feel like I really was on these adventures with them. It was a great story, and I'd definitely recommend it to any fans impatiently suffering through the show's hiatus. It is set post-season 1, as far as I could tell (I don't think I heard anything that would spoil anything in the later seasons), so that is something to keep in mind before starting it.
