Princess Mononoke Was the best and will be the best anime I ever saw, The art was beautiful and amzing, The animation was perfect, and the story was the best.
Also, I believe that this beats most animes in origianalty. Finally, he was able to cleary and accuratley show how feudal Japan actually looked and how the people of Japan suffered.

I love Mononoke Hime, it's arguably the best Hayao Miyazaki film to date. I've also seen it like 50 times!!

Welcome to the board Yakkuru .

There are a number of books, but none are novels.

1) Film-book - These things basically go through the story of the movie and have pictures taken directly from it.
2) 'The Art of Mononoke' - This is packed with storyboards, comments from Miyazaki and trivia, etc.
3) The Original Storyboards - In the 1980s, Miyazaki intended Mononoke to be a kind of japanese rendition of 'Beauty and the Beast'. I translated it and you can find the link in my signiture below.

E_Hakki has given a nice list of books on Mononoke available in English. But if you can read Japanese (or do not mind ignoring the text), there is a wider selection available.

4) Roman album
- a compilation of concept sketches, cel layouts, staff interviews, production diary and misc stuff

5) Storyboards
- different from the 80s version, this is the one that was used for the production of the Mononoke movie. Much thicker than its precdecessor, with rough but nonetheless great skecthes.

6) Archive
- a compilation of promotional materials, news-clippings, pamphlets, productional proposals and misc drawings

7) unofficial publications by avid Ghibli fans/researchers
- focus on discussing the themes, implications and various aspects of the movie. Since they are text-intensive, you need to have a good grasp of Japanese to enjoy them.

Hehe...so the list grows.

The closest thing to a novel I've found is this script with annotations.

Its organised into nice chapters and very easy to read.
