Stohl Launches SF Series at LBYR
Margaret Stohl, co-author of the bestselling YA series Beautiful Creatures, sold North American rights to two books in a new series called Icons to Little, Brown Books for Young Readers. Julie Scheina acquired the novels from agent Sarah Burnes at the Gernert Company, and book one is slated for spring 2013. The YA science fiction series, which is set 16 years after an alien invasion, follows a group of teenagers who become swept up in a resistance movement looking to unseat the extraterrestrials who’ve taken control of the planet.

For all our loyal Caster readers everywhere, don’t worry! Kami and I are still hard at work on the Beautiful Creatures Novels. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Kami had her own news to share in the near future — but of course, that’s just speculation on my part
And even if she did, you’d have to wait and hear it from her…!
Surprised?
If you need me, I’ll be here doing cartwheels up and down the street in front of my house.
