Are there any TMNT novels?
 

I dont mean graphic novels but just plain books (excluding children story books)

There was a handful of kiddie chapter books in the early 90s, and a couple at the beginning of the 2K3 years, but there's never been anything written/published for the adult market. I made this suggestion to Nickelodeon back in March, but I have no idea if it's something they'll ever pursue.

Yeah I have some, like Dinosaur Farm. If you count it there's books for TMNT and the first film I believe. Those might be the closest to what you're asking about.

What Russian novel, embraces more than 500 characters, is set in the Napoleotic wars?

War and Peace!

Yeah, the only novels were for kids. I remember Red Herrings specifically.

The 4 movies of course had Novelizations too.

For kids.

.

based on movies for kids based on a franchise for kids. It doesn't matter what the origins of the franchise is since in the end TMNT is a kids franchise.

Yep. Mirage may have been meant for adults, but almost everything else is meant for kids. Seems comic books are the only medium where the Turtles are not kid's fare.

Not sure if I still have 'em, but I had the two box sets of these eight original novels, novelizations of the first two movies, and a trivia book.

Not surprising considering its adults that support the comic industry. On the other hand its kids that support cartoons and their toys so of course the cartoons will be aimed at kids.

I have the trivia book...but it's in serious disrepair.

thought there was one not just aimed at kids for the second movie?
