Jim Sturges Jr has grown up with his overprotective dad ; his dad  became afraid of the world after his brother Jack was taken by "Something" while they were out on playing 45 years ago. Jim  noticing weird things around town such as something moving around the locker room when the lights go out.

The Trollhunters novel is different and similar to the tv show in a lot of ways ; the changes are mainly the names of characters and items. Lot of things were changed and added to make the tv show more interesting and allow for the story to be stretched out , for example Jim's last name is changed to lake and  he lives with his mom instead of his dad. Both versions of Trollhunters are amazing on their own ways and I would suggest the book to anyone how enjoyed the tv show. 

Guillermo del Toro is incredible at making characters that are interesting and keeping the reader invested in the story by using a steady pace and describing details to help imagine what the people,trolls, and locations.
