Sinner (The Wolves of Mercy Falls #4) by Maggie Stiefvator
Release Date July 1st 2014
A standalone companion book to the internationally bestselling Shiver Trilogy.
Sinner follows Cole St. Clair, a pivotal character from the #1 New York Times bestselling Shiver Trilogy. Everybody thinks they know Cole's story. Stardom. Addiction. Downfall. Disappearance. But only a few people know Cole's darkest secret -- his ability to shift into a wolf. One of these people is Isabel. At one point, they may have even loved each other. But that feels like a lifetime ago. Now Cole is back. Back in the spotlight. Back in the danger zone. Back in Isabel's life. Can this sinner be saved?
"Legions of fans -- myself included -- have wanted Maggie to return to the world of Shiver, and now she's found an ingenious, sexy, utterly compelling way to do it," says David Levithan, VP/Publisher and Editorial Director, Scholastic Press. "This isn't so much a re-visitation as it is a reinvention, with Maggie taking readers to many places they've never been with her before. There is nothing quite so amazing as Maggie Stiefvater at the top of her game."
Author Maggie Stiefvater says, "For me, finishing the Shiver trilogy was a bittersweet moment -- I knew that I wouldn't be returning to Mercy Falls once Sam and Grace's story was over. But Cole and Isabel still lurked in the back of my mind. Both of them were only half-fixed at the end of the trilogy, and I wanted to know if they could be fixed the rest of the way."

Why I'm Waiting?
I also felt that Cole and Isabel's story was not finished so I'm excited to see what happens between them.

I need to read this series! I know so many people love it, but I've put it off for too long.
ReplyDeleteI think I read Shiver, and tried to read Linger, but gave up. I really liked Shiver, but I can't remember what went wrong with Linger. I might catch up with this series over the summer! If not, I hope the fandom gets the series ending they want :) Hope you enjoy the book when you read it!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WoW post!
I haven't read this series but I loved The Raven Boys, I need to check out more of her books!
