I've never read the books, but I understand from those who have that they are quite different from the tv series. Its likely the only way the characters as we see them in the series will go on is through fan fiction.

I've only read one of the books and it was very different from the show. Barely recognised Bones. Fanfic wouldn't be too bad of an idea.

I wish one of the writers of the show could write the fanfiction so it doesn't differ too much from the original series.
