Fans will remember from the show how Wes and Jen fell for each other throughout the last season. Along with how they ultimately had to say goodbye by the show’s end. It was shown in the next crossover with Power Rangers Wild Force, that Jen had returned from the future and it looked like the two would get another few moments together. Questions arose around whether Jen has stayed in the past with Wes, or returned to the future. Fortunately, the answers will be explored in this novel.
The Story Behind Power Rangers: Sins of The Future
Power Rangers: Sins of The Future’s premise is that Wes and Jen are trying to make a relationship work, without sacrificing their commitments to the Silver Guardians and Time Force. Jen returns from the future and the couple is attacked by a mysterious stranger. They warn them that should they stay together, the timeline will be disrupted and the destiny of humanity will be changed. The identity of the accuser ultimately puts them on a collision course with an enemy they would never expect.
Writer Matthew Erman spoke in-depth about his motivation to write this new novel:
“I was once six years old eating malted milk-balls in my pj’s, glued to the television, exclusively watching Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers. 25 years later, I’m actually writing Power Rangers, and it is bonkers: a literal dream come true. Power Rangers: Sins of The Future is the story that my six-year-old self would have wanted to write.”
He continues to share his enthusiasm:
“Jen Scotts of Power Rangers Time Force takes center stage in this story, and she’s such a deep, interesting character with so much to pull from that writing her and other characters from Time Force has been a real gift. It’s been so wild to play in this sandbox and easy to see why it’s regarded by fans as some of the best the franchise has to offer. I can’t wait for everyone to read this!”
