And a friend who decided to steal a special medication for his little brother suffering from the geostigma. No electricity, little resources, and lots of survivors trying to make a life for themselves in this veritable wasteland.īut poor Evan, after being presumably abandoned by his mother right around the beginning of the events in the main Final Fantasy VII game, winds up getting roped into a whole slew of shenanigans-mostly due to his own lack of self-awareness, but also the Turks.
The conditions of this basically post-apocalyptic world are as you'd expect. He and his friends-Kyrie, Leslie, and Fabio-run a Private Investigation firm in the city of Edge, a newly formed city on the edge (get it?) of the remnants of the industrial metropolis of Midgar. The story follows Evan Townsend, a seventeen year old orphan eeking out a life in a post-Meteorfall world. So, who are these original characters? I shall tell you. Our main characters are original characters to this book, pretty much just trying to get by in the crazy world that is the Final Fantasy VII universe.īut, as someone who lives for this kind of shit, I was not only completely unbothered, but utterly delighted with this concept.
Yeah Tifa, Cloud, and a few others make brief appearances-with the Turks taking up most of the known character page time-but they are by no means the main focus of the story. I should say right off the bat that if you're super invested in the main Final Fantasy VII crew, this book won't be your cup of tea. All is forgiven now, because I read it and it was everything I wanted and more.īut, anyway, I should talk about the book itself now, shouldn't I? And Square Enix somehow got it out and published five months before I even knew about it. I scoured the internet for years for even a fan translation of it with no luck.īut now it's here. I never thought I'd see the day that this book got an official English translation and publication. Well, first off, I need to say that I truly cannot believe that I have this book.
