-from Wikipedia's Slayers entry
Written by Hajima Kanzaka, illustrated by Araizumi Rui, and published by Kadokawa Shoten/Fujimi Fantasia Bunko (Fujimi Shobou).
Slayers is, at its core, a fifteen volume light novel series which spawned many spinoffs, most notably the popular Slayers anime series (the 5th season, Evolution-R, is currently airing on AT-X). Tokyopop licensed and published the first eight novels, which cover the Slayers and Slayers Next seasons of the anime, but they have clearly stated that they have no plans to continue. The content of novels nine through fifteen has never been animated.
I noticed that there was another thread here, but it looked pretty dead and since I'm not only the one pushing this thing but also the translator, I cautiously presume it's not too bad to make a new one. If it's not I can try contacting the guy who made the previous thread. I've already finished translating the first out of the seven remaining novels, and plan to continue until I'm done with all of them. I have the required raw text as well as the included illustrations, which I will edit and upload as needed.
It's a series I really enjoyed when I was younger, and I thought it was a shame that a good half of it apparently never made it to the western fanbase.
