Sequel news

We've had about a zillion search string hits this month from people looking for information on the sequel to Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy. So here's a compilation of what (little) we know:

1. The sequel will be called Frostbite.

2. It's due out on April 3rd, 2008, and will be followed by at least one more book.

3. It's going to feature a skiing trip, further romantic complications for Rose, and a roving band of evil Strigoi.

We are indebted to Ms. Mead for the plot tidbits (many thanks!). But if you're one of her many new fans, did you know she has another urban fantasy series? It looks like it's intended for adult readers, but if you fit that category, why not while away some of the time between now and next April by reading Succubus Blues?
