Netflix and Penguin Random House are teaming up to release Stranger Things books, including a prequel novel.
According to Deadline, the prequel, set to release in early 2019, will follow Eleven’s mother and the MKUltra Program. Gwenda Bond will write the prequel. Bond has previously written a YA series covering the early life of Lois Lane, who would later develop a relationship with Superman.
Random House will also be releasing a behind-the-scenes book and a hardcover gift book for younger readers, both due out in the fall. The books will be released in the U.S. and the U.K., with international release dates to follow. More books are expected to come out throughout 2019.
