I am super excited by this news!
Even though there are two books to go in the Immortals series, I already know that I'm going to miss Ever, Damen and Co. a LOT, so I was very excited to hear of Alyson Noel's new four book deal that she's just signed with St. Martin's Press.
The Immortals series was actually the first YA series I started reading after finishing the Twilight saga, and I can tell you it saw me through some dark days without Edward Cullen! ;) I was swooning over Damen Auguste in no time at all.
This new 'Soul Seeker' series is planned for release in 2012, and here's a description in Alyson's own words:
Can you tell us about the series you’ve just signed a new deal for? Is it set in the Immortals world?
It’s a young adult supernatural novel and it’s a completely new world. The Immortals is set in Laguna Beach, California, and this book is going to be set in the Southwest, most likely New Mexico. So it’s going to have a very different atmosphere, landscape and feel, and it’ll explore themes of Shamanism and the ability to walk through the Upperworld and the Underworld and to walk amongst the dead. It’s about a 16-year-old girl who is quite different from Ever, the protagonist in the Immortals series, who starts suffering the symptoms of what appears to be a psychotic break. But her grandmother recognizes it for what it is: her heredity ability—her father had it as well—to walk between the Upperworld and the Underworld.

This sounds absolutely fantastic. I actually just finished reading Ever More and have to say that I'm utterly smitten by the series. Going to be getting the rest of the series this week that's for sure and am definitely looking forward to reading more of her books!
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting Alyson has a lot going on with Riley's book and now a new series. Good for YA!
ReplyDeleteSo awesome to hear that! I love The Immortals series :)
ReplyDeleteI love the Immortals series so I'll be buying these when they're out for sure!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds pretty cool. I must admit I ditched The Immortals after the 2nd book, but I liked the first one enough to give Alyson Noel another shot and the premis of this sounds pretty awesome.
ReplyDeleteI will have to give this series a try. Thanks for the info- I haven't read the last Immortal yet, but I am hoping it's better than Shadowland. I am pretty interested in the Immortals spin-off series with Riley, too.
