Final Fantasy VII: The Kids Are Alright: A Turks Side Story

This novel serves as a prequel to Advent Children, which helps explain some missing details from the movie. I did enjoy it quite a bit, not as much as Traces of Two Pasts, though.

This is a fun read if you are a Final Fantasy fan wanting to get some more story from the VII world. It helps to have at least placed the original game so you understand a lot of the context, otherwise you could get lost.

This book seemed a bit sad and dark at first, but I ended up really liking it. I'm a big fan of the Final Fantasy 7 series, though. If you're a fan as well, you'll probably like this book, although it it a bit sad. It's fun to see some new characters and see the story develop of some that just made a minor appearance in the game. Not a bad buy. I'll probably reread it every few years, but it definitely didn't change my life.

I bought this just because of its association with the popular video game. Being familiar with other video game tie-in books, I wasn't expecting much out of it. So, I was surprised when I found it was legitimately good! It's a well-told, mostly stand-alone book that introduces new characters, but it is integrated into the greater Final Fantasy VII canon and there is weight to what happens. Just a really great book. The story is better and more cohesive then Advent Children or Dirge of Cerberus. I say check it out!

The product has some creases but the product description does say it was used and it’s not too obvious so I don’t mind it much. I enjoyed reading it as well

It doesn't line up with FF7 Remake and Rebirth canonically, but it's meant to be supplementary to the movie Advent Children. It does a good job of that at least. The story is really good, but I think it had some issues with translations I mean how they don't reuse the word children in the title is beyond me for starters. Shouldn't they try to make some more effort to draw attention to its association with Advent Children? Oh well. Honestly thought the source material (FF7: AC) wasn't top tier movie material so this book was somewhat limited in terms of lore to work with, but it did fine with what it had to work with IMHO.

"The Kids Are Alright: A Turks Side Story" is an enjoyable read for any Final Fantasy 7 fan. Kazushige Nojima is a skilled author who knows how to balance pacing with dialogue, and the descriptions are well-written! The English translation is a very enjoyable read. I purchased Nojima's other FF7 book "On The Way To A Smile" afterwards because I couldn't get enough!

As most people who read (or are thinking of reading) this book, I love all things FF VII. So I had to check this out. It is an excellent fit between the game & the movie - most references to the story we all know & love are minimal & nothing has a non-canonical stink to it (even though some of the characters & events do make appearances throughout). Plus, I love Reno & Rude, so their parts in the story are a gem. Def a great way to spend a few hours & a great addition to your collection.

Um ótimo livro para quem procura por mais conteúdo de FF7 e quer saber mais sobre o que aconteceu após os eventos do jogo original e antes do filme FFAC. A entrega demorou um pouco por vir do exterior, mas chegou dentro do prazo e em bom estado. A great book to those who wish for more content on FF7 and want to know more about what happend after the events of the original game and before the FFAC movie.

Lectura fácil y amena para seguir ampliando la historia de Final Fantasy VII

Book arrived quicker than expected, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, being a fan of FFVII for nearly more than a decade now, and particularly, a fan of Rufus Shinra and the Turks. A must-read for any FFVII fan, and especially fellow Shinra simps.

I went into this not really knowing what to expect, but it ended up being a pretty solid read. It fills in some of the world around FFVII in a way that actually feels worthwhile instead of just being extra filler. The point of view from the Turks gives it a different vibe to the usual FFVII stories, which I actually enjoyed more than I thought I would. Some parts drag a little, but overall it's easy to get through and adds a bit more depth to characters you don’t usually get much from. If you’re into FFVII lore, it’s definitely one of the better side stories. If you’re just curious, it’s still entertaining enough to keep you going.

Muy interesante para los fans de la saga, si no sabes inglés te ayudará a aprender bastante vocabulario. El libro me llegó en excelentes condiciones y rápido.
