The new projects come thanks to a rights deal between Netflix and Penguin Random House Children, making this the first time the rights to all adaptations have been held in the same place. The film would presumably draw inspiration from the eponymous first book in the franchise, while the event series would follow the beloved character Martin the Warrior.

Modern stylistics, in general, draws much of its analytical power from the analytical methods and descriptive intentions of linguistics, while modern literary stylistics, in particular, draws upon that area and adds to it the interpretive goals of modern literary criticism.
