Publisher's summary

From Zack Snyder, the filmmaker behind 300, Man of Steel, and Army of the Dead, comes Rebel Moon, an epic science-fantasy event decades in the making.

When a peaceful settlement on a moon in the furthest reaches of the universe finds itself threatened by the armies of the tyrannical Regent Balisarius, Kora (Sofia Boutella), a mysterious stranger living among the villagers, becomes their best hope for survival. Tasked with finding trained fighters who will unite with her in making an impossible stand against the Mother World, Kora assembles a small band of warriors—outsiders, insurgents, peasants and orphans of war from different worlds who share a common need for redemption and revenge. As the shadow of an entire Realm bears down on the unlikeliest of moons, a new army of heroes is formed.

Novelized by V. Castro, two-time Bram Stoker Award-nominated author. Experience Rebel Moon in this pulse-pounding novelization.

Great detail for the R rated version

loved the opening with Aris' origin, expands upon characters in the PG-13 version, and the visceral details of the fights in the film.

this feels like the R rated extended version of the pg13 movie. I absolutely loved it 🌒🪐

Final notes 📝 10/10 if this is the R rated cut I'd be really happy . Way more brutal but I hope we get even more then this because why would the book spoil the extended cut? Hope it's more. I loved this. 7 hours 38min

Great story

loved the movie and this book adds so much detail to the world created by Snyder and everyone involved with Rebel Moon

Excellent

adds much depth to the lore to the world and context around scenes in the film

Exceptional Story

Great story, loved the characters and plot twist. I cannot wait for the next part of the story.

Much better than the movie

More detail and better pacing. The narrator does a great job. Must read after you watch.

Waiting excited for book 2!!!!

loved the story the depth and building of the characters even the cinematic set up with more then one narrator which usually I do not. Can't wait for next one.

HUGE improvement over the PG 13 movie.

Im going to be honest, I didn't love the Pg13 movie. It was very much lacking in character development and story. Now, if the extended movie contains everything that's in this book then it will be a 9/10 movie for me. This book fixes every issue I had about the movie. It added character development to characters I didn't even know was important, it quickly establishes the horror/cruelty of the Motherworld, and the team building is better fleshed out.

This book has made me very excited for the extended versions of these Rebel Moon movies. But let say the movies still fall short, The story is good enough that I will be continuing with the novels and comicbooks

The True Rebel Moon

I really did not care for the film after I watched it, however after listening, this is the true vision of Rebel Moon, with all the added depth the film lacked. This is The True Rebel Moon experience!

great story, can't wait for the next part

The book goes into much more detail about what happens to the characters. the book. it's also a bit more graphic in the violence and events that happen. if you have watched a movie, the performance of the reader is not as good because you haven't expectation of the voices from the movie. however, if you have not watched the movie, I think the reader doesn't excellent job at conveying each character and portray their personality very well. if you're looking for space adventure, this is a great choice.
