The Paladin Prophecy, a novel which does not hit until this fall, is already garnering interest in Hollywood. The screen rights have been picked up by Reliance Entertainment and Kintop Pictures from Random House. The young adult novel is the first in a trilogy written by Mark Frost (Twin Peaks).
According to Variety, the book “centers on Will West, who has muted his unusual abilities both in the classroom and on the playing fields to avoid attention. But his cover is blown when he scores off the charts on a nationwide exam, and the resulting danger from a host of mysterious forces send him on the run into a complex world of secret societies and supernatural conflicts.”
Frost will pen the screen adaptation and executive produce the film.
