This is when a [[Novelization]] of a work (usually a film) arrives on store shelves before the work's own debut, resulting in [[Spoiler|Spoilers]]s to those who read it. It can happen in any media, and is increasingly common in big-budget titles.
 
This, obviously, does not apply to cases where the original work is a book series itself (e.g. ''[[Harry Potter]]'') and receives a re-release right before its [[The Film of the Book|film adaptation]] hits the box office. (Unless the novelization is specifically [[Recursive Adaptation|based on the adaptation]], instead of the original source.)
