Waiting on Wednesday #1: THE TWELVE by Justin Cronin

Wow, my first “Waiting on Wednesday!”  This is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine, and the reason I’m jumping in this week is that I found out some good news about an upcoming title that I’m very excited to read.  And the good news is this:

Yes, that is the new cover for The Twelve by Justin Cronin, book two of the Passage Trilogy (after The Passage).  Isn’t it beautiful?I love it even better than the cover I found on a Finnish website.  It also now has a release date of October 16, 2012.  I can’t find a story description anywhere, but you can read an excerpt in the March 16th edition of Entertainment Weekly. I hope to have caught up on my reading list by then…
