Check out these awesome illustrations of Kyoshi’s Team Avatar from The Shadow of Kyoshi!

If you didn’t know, there’s a YA novel series about everyone’s favorite continent-splitting earth Avatar in her formative years. The first book, The Rise of Kyoshi, came out last year, and now this week the follow-up hits shelves: The Shadow of Kyoshi! These books are seriously some of the best expanded universe content in Avatar canon, you should definitely check them out if you haven’t already.

The Shadow of Kyoshi is supposed to release in a few days on July 21st. However, the Barnes & Noble exclusive edition has accidentally been put out on shelves a week early in some locations, and I was luckily able to get my hands on a copy. This edition features some really great artwork along with commentary from the author.

You can see some of the illustrations above, featuring…

Kyoshi, who is 18 years old in this book

Rangi, who hails from the Fire Nation

Yun, the earthbender who was originally declared to be the Avatar

They look super cool! I would definitely love to see them animated one day…
