Synopsis

"Geass" is a supernatural ability bestowed upon people who are worthy of its use. Its exact effect depends on its user's desires, but those who command it wield devastating power.

In the far away land of Area 11, formerly known as Japan, the astute 17-year-old student Lelouch Lamperouge is granted his own Geass by the mysterious woman C.C., which gives him the absolute obedience of those it is used upon. With this, Lelouch vows to destroy the only world superpower—the Holy Britannian Empire—under the guise of the revolutionary freedom-fighter Zero, to exact vengeance on those who ruined him and his family.

These are definitely worth a read for any Code Geass fan. They give extra insight to the series and more depth to the characters. This novel series highlights a lot of the in between scenes that are referenced or mentioned in the anime. If you ever wanted to see things like more school moments, the times Lelouch and Nunnally spent at the Kururugi household, or things of that nature, I recommend the novels. The only out of character moment I can speak of is when Nunnally said "Bullshit". Of course, she was referring to the card game, but it was still quite strange.
