It's the other way around, the books had always came first.

AniThyng is merely the name I gave to what became my favourite Baldur's Gate II mage character :P

Just to be clear, is this a novel or a manga/comic book/whatever?

Novel series.

Just checked, book 4 came out two days ago. 10 total, so they'll probably complete the run in not that long a time.
