Bookish News: Salt & Stone (Fire & Flood #2) by Victoria Scott

A NOTE FROM VICTORIA SCOTT I can’ t believe how amazing these past couple of weeks has been. Fire & Flood is officially out in the world, and it’ s an incredible feeling. To see it on shelves and hear readers’ reactions to some of my beloved scenes has provided me heaps of writing fuel. And this is good news since I’ ve been elbow deep in revisions for book two. Ah, the second book. What can I tell you without spoiling the ride? Well, I can say this—I believe in packing each book with more action than the one preceding it. I believe in continually raising stakes, testing characters, and strengthening relationships. There are many scenes in book two that break my heart, and others that make me laugh. There will be frostbite and avalanches, oceanic storms and twisted new rules. There will be deaths of beloved characters, and new Pandoras to adore. And there will be fierce battles between Contenders and Pandoras alike over the one thing everyone wants—the Cure. For it all comes down to this: Who will be the one to cross the finish line first? The answer may surprise you. Now, let’ s get on with what you’ re here for—the first nugget of information about book two! The official title and release season are… SALT & STONE COMING SPRING 2015
