Congrats to Juliet…

By Writer Unboxed  |  March 5, 2009  | 

I think all of Juliet Marillier’s readers will be happy to hear that there WILL be a new book in the Sevenwaters series. This was in yesterday’s Publisher’s Marketplace, and Juliet said I could pass the news along to you here.

FICTION: GENERAL/OTHER
Juliet Marillier’s SONG OF THE ISLAND, about druids and Vikings set in medieval Ireland, in the author’s “Sevenwaters” series, to Anne Sowards at Ace, in a very nice deal, in a two-book deal, for publication in 2011, by Russell Galen at Scovil Galen Ghosh Literary Agency (NA).

Juliet has also sold Australian and New Zealand rights to SONG OF THE ISLAND and its sequel to Pan Macmillan.

Congratulations, Juliet, on this wonderful news!

    What excellent news for Juliette! I believe it will only be a matter of time before she has a worldwide deal in place. It’s always uplifting for fellow writers to hear about this kind of success for an author.
    Congratulations, Juliette! Well done!

    Oh wonderful news!!! I have every book that Juliet has ever written and I think she is a master of the craft. I am always inspired and moved by her writing.

    Congratulations Juliet!

    Huzzah! Juliet has such a talent for creating an entire world- I’m thrilled to see that we’ll get to see more of it.

    The first time I read Daughter of the Forest, I didn’t know what to expect. I looked up seven hours later, stunned at how much time had gone by. I’m always unable to put down her books. :-)

    Fantastic news, Juliet!

    I’ve just started Wolfskin, and I’m loving the fact you’re going back to the Viking world. Yay!
