JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (novel)

 Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: The Genesis of Universe (titled simply "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, the subtitle present only in the Italian version) is the first light novel released for the series, written by Mayori Sekijima and Hiroshi Yamaguchi, with illustrations by Araki Hirohiko. It tells two original storylines set in Part III: Stardust Crusaders and was released in both Japanese undefined and Italian, the Italian version often with the added subtitle of "The Genesis of Universe".

Storyline
The first storyline, named "Desert line from Hell", happens between the battle against N'Dour and the encounter with Oingo & Boingo. Noriaki Kakyoin doesn't appear, probably because of his injured eye. Traveling in the desert, the Joestar group finds a train and take refuge, but soon face constant attacks from two stand users.

The second storyline, named "Passionate tomb of sand", happens after the battle against Hol Horse & Boingo. As Iggy doesn't appear, it probably happens during his fight against Pet Shop. The Joestar group battles against an ancient stand.
