アメリカ人作家であり、ホラー、ファンタジー、スリラー作品を主に著すティム・ワゴナー（Tim Waggoner）の作品集。映画『バイオハザード（原題：Resident Evil）』（2002年公開）、『キングスマン：ゴールデン・サークル（原題：Kingsman: The Golden Circle）』（2017年公開、日本での公開は2018年）のノベライズで知られる作者が、今作では2024年公開映画『MaXXXine マキシーン（原題：MaXXXine）』を手がける。

She was destined for the stars… but first she had to live through hell!

In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as a mysterious killer stalks rising starlets, a trail of blood threatens to reveal her sinister past.

Ti West’s acclaimed horror trilogy concludes with a blood-soaked neon nightmare in the Hollywood Hills—adapted for the page by Bram Stoker Award-winner Tim Waggoner.

The filmmaker-approved novelization is printed in throwback pocket-sized paperback format, bringing beloved scream queens Pearl and Maxine to a new medium. Relive the cocaine-fueled nightmare that threatened to sabotage Maxine’s stardom, now with grisly new details drawn from West’s original screenplay.

Maxine may have made it to Hollywood, but it’s still one goddamn fucked up horror story.
