Full Metal Panic Collector’s Edition Omnibus (Novel) (Hardcover) Vol. 01

Volumes 1-3, now in a collectors hardcover edition, and with a brand new translation!

Sagara Sousuke isn’t your typical high school student. He reads military enthusiast magazines; he responds to questions with “affirmative;” he brings grenades to school in his bag. Though everyone at school takes him for a hopeless military geek, Chidori Kaname thinks there might be something more to him.

When their plane is hijacked in the middle of a field trip, Kaname’s instincts will prove correct: Sousuke is an elite, mech-piloting mercenary… and he’s here to protect her!

Title Notes:

New hot book category: Light Novels!

A novel that appeals to fans of anime and manga, it has multiple color images in the front and ~10 black and white illustrations in the main text. Books are 250-350 pages long and published rapidly in long series, hooking the readers!

A classic in Japan, this collector’s edition finishes what a previous publisher left undone!

Full Metal Panic! has had 3 seasons of anime adaptations over the years, and has a loyal fan following. But the English release of the original novels was cut short by the bankruptcy of the publisher, and J-Novel Club is rescuing the series and giving it an all-new, modern retranslation, along with a hardcover, triple volume omnibus release!

Teens and older will love this combination of high school romance and realistic mecha action, with a lot of complex political intrigue as well!: Ages 14+!

This series is appropriate for teens and up.
