A novel-style re-creation of a television series may involve copyright issues if the creativity and storyline are the same as or similar to the original author, because the re-creation may be regarded as a "pirated" or "copyright-violating re-creation" of the original work. Those who created works under copyright law had the right to copyright, including the rights to adapt, translate, recreate, and distribute the works. Unauthorized novel-style reworks of the TV series may violate the copyright of the original work. In order to avoid copyright issues, it is recommended to obtain authorization from the original author or consult the opinions of professionals to ensure that the creation is legal.
