Son by Lois Lowry
Told in three separate story lines, Lois Lowry’s Son combines elements from the first three novels in her Giver Quartet — The Giver (1994 Newbery Medal winner), Gathering Blue, and Messenger — into a breathtaking, thought-provoking narrative that wrestles with ideas of human freedom. Thrust again into the dark, claustrophobic world of The Giver, readers will meet an intriguing new heroine, fourteen-year-old Claire. Jonas from The Giver is here too, and Kira, the heroine of Gathering Blue. In a final clash between good and evil, a new hero emerges.
I don't usually make my Waiting on Wednesday posts for a book so far out from its release date, but I really think everyone should pre-order this book now!
This sounds awesome! I loved The Giver, truly original.
ReplyDeleteI know, isn't it great!?
DeleteI love The Giver, Gathering Blue and I JUST literally finished Messenger. I started crying until I looked up any more books by Lois, and found Son. Now I am so happy and cannot WAIT until this book arrives in stores. :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of combining the three story lines into one, I hope it lives up to all my hopes!
