Bologna Book Fair 2018
The Bologna Book Fair is around the corner! Once again I am thrilled to be representing such terrific titles, and although I won't have a rights guide to share for a bit, I am happy to give you a peek at some of the upcoming books:
FLIGHT OF THE SWANS by Sarah McGuire (Lerner / Oct '18):
Loosely based on The Six Swans by The Brothers Grimm, this middle-grade novel has all the elements of a classic fairy tale, including an evil queen who enchants the king to banish his children, a mysterious old woman who speaks in riddles, avengeful huntsmen, a brave heroine, true love, and, of course, a happy ending.
WHISPER by Lynette Noni (Kids Can Press / May '18):
The story of an imprisoned girl known only as Subject 684 has kept silent through the years of testing and torture, alone in the knowledge that her words are infused with power - and she can't control what happens when she opens her mouth.
BRING ME THEIR HEARTS by Sara Wolf (Entangled / Jun '18):
Zera is a Heartless — the immortal, unaging soldier of a witch. Bound to the witch Nightsinger ever since she saved her from the bandits who murdered her family, Zera longs for freedom from the woods they hide in. With her heart in a jar under Nightsinger’s control, she serves the witch unquestioningly.
Crown Prince Lucien d’Malvane hates the royal court as much as it loves him — every tutor too afraid to correct him and every girl jockeying for a place at his darkly handsome side. No one can challenge him — until the arrival of Lady Zera. She’s inelegant, smart-mouthed, carefree, and out for his blood. Literally. The prince ’ s honor has him quickly aiming for her throat.
So begins a game of cat and mouse between a girl with not hing to lose and a boy who has it all.
