Scott Westerfeld announced the release of Imposters, a new book in the Uglies series on sale September 11th. To that I say, hells yeah!!!!!
"Since the Uglies books came out, countless fans have told me how reading the series changed them. These conversations have in turn changed me. All that fan fiction, art, and critique has enlarged the Uglies world in my head, making it messier and more real. So when the idea for IMPOSTORS struck, it was time to apply everything you’ve taught me.
The original Uglies books were about revolution. But overthrowing an oppressive regime is just the start. What happens next? History is full of revolutions that falter, rebels who wind up becoming what they fought against. The question “what next” kept hitting me—especially given everything happening in our own reality. So I decided to return to the world of Uglies and find new heroes ready to take up Tally Youngblood’s revolution.
IMPOSTORS is about one of those heroes, Frey of Shreve, trying to find the truth of herself in a world where almost everything is false.
Hope you enjoy it."
