Exciting YA News!!

Happy Labor Day, fellow bibliophiles!

What better way to celebrate a national holiday than to talk about something awesome?

Some of you may remember how much I absolutely ADORE Kersten Hamilton's Goblin Wars books. If you don't you can refresh your memory by reading my review of Tyger Tyger here and my review of In the Forests of the Night here. Also, Tyger Tyger made my Stand-Out Books of 2010 and In the Forests of the Night made my Stand-Out Books of 2011.

If you haven't read them yet, you definitely need to fix that!

Anyway, it has been revealed that the third book in the Goblin Wars trilogy will be called When the Stars Threw Down Their Spears - and it will be released in February! Or at least that's the plan so far, though Amazon.com is reporting something different, so keep your pitchforks handy! ;)

Here's the cover:


Shiver me timbers, am I excited!!! How about you?

Where did you learn about all these creatures? Which creature from the book is your favorite? I have a small, but growing, collection of books about mythical creatures around the world.

Something that really surprised me as I started learning more about mythical monsters was the number of different cultures that share very similar ...
