You probably saw that earlier this year, I embarked on a short novel about Seungho and Minho's K-pop group, Apollo. Not about Apollo the idols, but about their fictional alter egos.
Well...it's done now! 50K+ words, which seems unreal to me.
For completeness, I'm plugging it here too.
Because if you are a completionist, how can you resist an entire spin-off novel about a fictional boy band that only appears for a few scenes in the main story??
(Please...contain yourselves!)
So, OK. It's definitely not for everyone. :)
But, if you've enjoyed the sillier, more fantastical aspects of The Truth Tellers and Libretto, maybe give it a try!
You'll see certain characters in a whole new way, and you might get a chuckle out of it too.
Here's a quick summary:
Readers of the comic may remember that the fictional story of Apollo goes something like this:
Once upon a time, there were 5 young men who were given special powers by the Greek god Apollo in order to help ordinary mortals. Their powers are of Healing, Music, Light, Truth, and Prophecy.
But how did they come to be acolytes of Apollo to begin with?
And, what does it even mean to help humanity?
"Dawn of Apollo" explores how Im Sunny, an ordinary underperforming Korean university student who loves the simple things in life, like biking and hanging out with his Airedale terrier, becomes entwined with the Acolytes of Apollo and discovers his extraordinary destiny.
This will be a limited series, with 2 volumes maybe?
When the next volume is ready, I will also attach it to Libretto.
See ya!
