Hey folks –
Apologies. I probably should have announced this earlier, but it’s been a rough year so far.
Anyhow, the Spy Ski School graphic novel comes out in two weeks, on March 4 — and yes, as with all the other GNs, Barnes & Noble will be offering an exclusive edition. Each book comes with bonus content — for exactly the same price as the regular edition!
Click here to pre-order yours now!
Also, if you want to get your copy before anyone else in the universe — come to the North Texas teen Book Festival in Irving Texas on Saturday, March 1. Copies will be available there — and I’ll be signing them.
For details, check out the Events box on every page of this website.
Hi Stuart Gibbs,
Sorry that it has been a rough year. I always look forward to your new books!
Thanks!

Spy school graphic novels are cool. Could there be a FunJungle/Moon Base Alpha/Charlie Thorne/Once Upon a Tim graphic novel?
Abhishek Paul –
There could be GNs of other series in the future. But they are expensive and time consuning to create so it might be a while.
Hi Stuart
I haven’t read your books in a while but I hope you’re doing well. This series was so great. I used to be younger than Ben but now I’m almost an adult. So crazy.
Thank you for such an awesome series.
I am definetly getting a special edition! I love your books! (especially evil spy school) Thank you for your hard work and dedication to your books.
David and Amon –
Thanks for your kind words. I really appreciate them.
what the differents between a normal version versus an exclusive version
Is there like bonus content, sneak peaks?
Cristopher G –
The bonus content is the what makes the exclusive edition different.
But there are no sneak peeks. If you want to see it before you buy it, you can always go to Barnes & Noble.
Hi Stuart
I am new to the series (my sister recommended it for me) I am on book 5. I am wondering
what the age thing is because I am 9 and what the illustration is like I the graphic novel can you send a picture?
P.S can you come to Fresno CA for a book thing?
-Benji
Benji M –
There is a bit of illustration for the graphic novel on this very site if you look at the book page for the Spy School Graphic novel here.
No bookstore or school has ever invited me to Fresno. I can’t visit until that happens.
Hey Stuart-
I am a huge fan. Have all your books. I’m very excited for the upcoming releases. Keep up the excellent work!
You’ve probably heard this thousands of times before.
Hi Stuart
I will ask my librarian if you can come
Thanks, Benji
Prequelfan –
Reading praise like this never gets old. Thank you!
Hi Stuart
I love helping and I was wondering if you ever needed help you could ask if you don’t need help currently so here is my Gmail if you need help it totally up to YOU BenjiMasutsubo@gmail.com.
-Benji
P.S I am not up to the latest book but in book 14 can you make Erica nicer?
What type of bonus content is there in the exclusive edition?
Abhishek –
There is a pull out poster and some other fun stuff.
Hi Stuart
I love helping and I was wondering if you ever needed help you could ask if you don’t need help currently so here is my Gmail if you need help it totally up to you.. (EMAIL DELETED.)
-Benji
P.S I am not up to the latest book but in book 14 can you make Erica nicer?
Hi
Its Benji I asked my teacher and she said you could come is i asked you so please include that in the response.
-Benji
Benji M –
Thanks for the offer, but I have plenty of people who help me with my books as it is. (Also, I wouldn’t recommend putting your email on a public site. If you want to communicate directly with me I have an email on my FAQ page for that.)
As for Erica’s personality — she has become nicer throughout the series.
Benji M –
If your teacher would like me to come then your teacher (or your school) needs to consult the School Visits page on this site to arrange things.
Hello Mr. Stuart Gibbs, I’m a big fan of every series you’ve written, you do awesome work. Just curious, will Sage make a return to the FunJungle series (or any other series? possible crossover?). Also, how long do you plan on writing your series for, will there ever be a book where Ben or Teddy graduate?
Ethan –
I only bring characters back if there is a reason they would make sense in a future book. I can;t say whether that will happen with Sage or not.
I don’t know how long I will continue writing my series, but I can’t let my characters get too old or the books will stop being Middle Grade and become Young Adult.
i saw a copy of the graphic novel earlier at a barnes and noble. I didn’t buy it cause I didn’t have cash but seeing it was cool
i LOVE your books your my favourite author in the whole world. i have already gotten a special copy of the book and i cant wait for the next books by you! keep up the good work! – Amon
your series is “swawsome”!
Amon & Topham –
Thanks for your kind words.
Hello Mr. Gibbs, I have heard rumors for a possible graphic novel of the moon base alpha series, but I understand if you can neither confirm nor deny anything. But just saying, I would love to see a graphic novel for this series! Seeing all of the characters on space would be really cool, and I would honestly want this before a graphic novel version for the FunJungle series. Thank you!
Emilio –
There will be a GN for MBA. I haven’t posted yet because I still don’t have a cover, but it is coming.
Soren-
Wait…
Are you the same Soren that was on here in 2019?
Hey Stu!
2 quick questions:
Have you ever tried lutefisk? Have you had an experience with it that made you put it in MBA, or did you just add it because it was Swedish?
And at the end of SSEE, there’s a line that teases that an Evil Spy School EE could be coming out. Was that just a tease, or is that actually happening?
Thanks!
Hello Gibbs. I was wondering, would you be ok with me making a review video on the spy school series? I’ve been working on the script for this video all school year, but only now has it occurred to me that I should ask for your permission to make this video. Super excited for this book, and I plan on picking it and SSGW up once it’s out
Charlie –
I have never had lutefisk. It just is something I learned about in researching Swedish foods.
No guarantees on an evil entrance exam yet. We will see what happens.
Carson C –
People are always welcome to make review videos of my books. (I prefer if they’re positive, but people are free to say whatever they want.)
Stuart I am a second year student studying biology in university but I read all of your books when I was younger. I am reading them all again just because of how fun and immersing they are.
Thank you for being a great author.

Hello again Mr. Gibbs, thank you for the response! When could the graphic novel for MBA come out? Like 2026-27? I also had some more questions:
1) Will you ever continue the Moon Base Alpha series? Maybe it could be in the future, when Dash is an adult and Moon Base Beta is built, or they’re living on some other planet.
2) When could a GN for FunJungle come out?
3) Any hints on what Charlie Thorne #5 will be about?
Thank you!
Lkazoo –
Thanks for the kind words. I am thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the books again — and very pleased to hear that you are studying bio.
Emilio –
The GN for MBA will be out this year.
The MBA series will not continue. I have an old blog post explaining why.
Don’t know when an FJGN would come out.
No hints on CT5. I never give hints about what I will be writing next.
Hi Stu
Do you know when CT5 might be expected. Cause I cant wait that is my favorite one of your series.
Thanks
My name is Ripley Ben Ripley
Hi
I don’t wanna be rude cause I love your books but your booking signing thing with the cut out sticky note is kinda dumb. No one will actually do that they would just find another way like going to one of your book signings. Cant we just send the book to you then you sign it and send it back if we pay for shiping so much cooler.
Just need to express my thoughts sorry if taken as rude
Bob
Hello Mr.Gibbs.
How many book will there be in the Charlie Thorne series
Will you soon be making an announcement/blog post on MBA gn or CT5??
Ripley Ben Ripley –
I am not sure if there will be another CT book, but if there is, tit won’t come out for at least two years. Sorry.
Bob –
How on earth could you possibly think that saying something is dumb to anyone is remotely acceptable? I can think of perhaps a thousand kinder ways to express that very same thought.
Also…
1) The cut out thing is a joke. In the fifteen years this site has been going, you seem to be the first person who has failed to understand that.
2) Ever though it’s a joke, people have still done it.
3) You CAN send me the books. People do it all the time. They just ask nicely first. If you want to do that, there is a mailing address on my website. But you have to mail me a prepaid return envelope as well, because it’s really expensive to mail books.
Rafael –
I do not know how many CT books there will be.
sophie !
I was just getting around to writing the MBA GN post today.
Mr. gibbs, I asked you if there could be graphic novels for Funjungle/Moon Base Alpha/Charlie Thorne/Once Upon a Tim graphic novels. I actually wanted to ask for Funjungle/Moon Base Alpha/Charlie Thorne graphic novels because Once Upon a Tim already has pictures.
Dear Mr. Gibbs,
I am sorry to hear that it has been a rough year. I have 2 questions.
What is your writing process?
Do you have any pets?
ericahale
You can learn a lot about my writing process in my Mission: Write video series, which you can link to from the ‘Writing Advice’ page of this website.
I have a dog.
