Notes / trivia[]

  • Hadji is named Hadji Bingh in the novels, which is how he's named in various marketing material for The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest series.
  • The novels have multiple discrepancies with the television series and with other books in the series. Race is stated to be former Navy SEAL in one of the books,[1] and a former Marine in another. In one book, Jessie is stated to have her father's eyes and "jet black hair",[2] but she has neither in the main series, and Race also doesn't have black hair in the main series.
  • The cover and insider art for all the books was done by Larry Navarro.
