Is Lords of Kobol canon? Hello everyone, big fan of the show, have a quick question. I did some google research but I didn't find a satisfactory answer. As far as I understood, Lords of Kobol trilogy is quite good but is it canon at all? Also 4th book is kind of a parallel universe thing and what is the 5th book about? Is it a sequel for the 4th book or a prequel for trilogy? If the trilogy is some kind of fanfiction by the author, I would prefer the skip it.
