It's been busy times here in the Dyerverse. ARCs are beginning to filter out. Reactions are beginning to filter in. And we're getting closer and closer to the book's release! The Team of Awesome at Simon & Schuster has even made a widget so you can count down the days with us!
Best part? You can view the awesomeness that is the book trailer for The Unbecoming within the widget for The Evolution! HOW COOL IS THAT?* (Thanks, Matt!)
But there's something even more amazing I have to share with you.
Since The Unbecoming came out last year (and even before) I've gotten tons of questions asking how many books would be in the series. I've always been a bit cagey (sorry) about answering them. While it had always been my secret hope that there would be a third book, and while mysterious plans for said third book have been in the works for a while, I didn't want to jinx it before it was officially official. But now it is. It is OFFICIALLY HAPPENING. Making the Mara Dyer series a trilogy. And I can even tell you the title...

I hope you like it because I AM OBSESSED WITH IT. What does it mean, you ask? Let's have a Merriam-Webster moment:
ret·ri·bu·tion
noun \ˌre-trə-ˈbyü-shən\
Definition of RETRIBUTION
1: recompense, reward
2: the dispensing or receiving of reward or punishment especially in the hereafter
3: something given or exacted in recompense; especially : punishment
Let's just say the title couldn't be more fitting. Why? Well...you'll have to read The Evolution to find out ;) (Inserts handy preorder link here)

So there you have it. The Retribution of Mara Dyer, coming Fall 2013! The countdown for The Evolution of Mara Dyer, coming 10/23/2012! Sharing the heck out of both will earn you my undying love and affection, so post, tweet, tumbl, and embed away!
PS: No, that's not the cover; it's just for fun!
PPS: There's a smaller version of the widget for blog sidebars, too! Click here to grab it. Hint hint.
