I was so crushed earlier this year when I read NAL’s press release that The Keep would be the last book in Veronica Wolff’s The Watchers series — especially after I got to that incredible ending. So I was thrilled when Veronica announced that she would self-publish more books in the series.
I asked Veronica to talk about this decision. Here’s what she had to say:
I’m just so far from being done with Drew’s story. Not only do I feel I owe it to my readers to show them what happens to her but (at the risk of sounding strange) I owe it to these characters who’ve become so vivid for me. Also, as an author, I want to have the experience of seeing it through to the end. I guess I have to see she’s okay for myself…LOL.
Veronica says you can look for the next book in The Watchers series in December 2013. Look for an EXCLUSIVE SNEAK PEEK right here at Novel Novice on Friday!
Not heard of this series, but I might have to check it out. 🙂
I have this series on my tbr file and I actually have a copy of the first book for more than a yr already. I need to get on it, right? And so happy veronica decided to continue with the series, self-publishing it might even be good for her too
OMG I really though I would be left hanging with the ending of The Keep. I almost wept thinking the series would be left like that. Now I’m jumping with joy!
I love this series, and i can hardly wait for the next book…
When does the next book come out? Also what is it called?
itss been over a year now turning into 2 years its disappointing
I agree it has been a long 2 years since the novella came out (Dark Cravings for anyone who missed it) however Veronica Wolff earlier today via twitter did confirm to me that the release date for the final instalment will be 2016 with the cover to be finished “soon”. So let’s all keep our fingers and toes crossed to get some closure after The Keep’s cliffhanger and Dark Cravings side tale!
Excellent news!!!
I just finished The Keep and am dying to see the final book.
