In 2007 a light novel was published in Japan based on the movie ''[[L Change the World (Film)|L: Change the World]]'', which was itself a [[Spin-Off]] of the popular ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]'' franchise. It was then re-released in 2009 in some countries. The novel in itself is pretty short, with only a total of 188 pages.
 
It's an [[Alternative Continuity]] to both the main ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]'' series and the film it was based on. The story centers around L and his last 23 days on earth and twenty-two days to save the world from a terrorist group called Blue Ship whose main goal is to purify the world by killing off most of humanity with a deadly virus.
