Out of the Wild by Sarah Beth Durst
Jun. 22nd, 2008 02:43 amToday was the release party for Sarah Beth Durst's sequel to Into the Wild, about Rapunzel's daughter and the land of fairy tales!
I drove down to Worcester, where she gave a brief presentation and a short reading from the new book (with a really scary ending point!). I got to meet her spouse and really really cute daughter (going on 3), as well as her dad, because this is the area she's from (and around which the books are centered).
And... I got to buy a copy of Out of the Wild.
It was, as expected, wonderful. I highly recommend it! (So do Tammy and Bruce Coville and many other people more famous than I.)
If you haven't read Into the Wild, you can read the first chapter. If you have, then chapter one of Out of the Wild is available - but it has at least one spoiler for the first book in it, so hold off if you haven't read ITTW, first!
