Behemoth Released

Behemoth by young adult author Scott Westerfeld comes out today, October 5th, 2010. This is the sequel to Westerfeld’s novel Leviathan, which came out almost exactly a year ago, on October 6^th of 2009.

In even more exciting news, Westerfeld’s tour for his new book stops by in Austin on Saturday, October 16^th, less than two weeks from today. If you’re a fan of Levithan, Scott Westerfeld, or historical steampunk fiction set during World War I in general, be sure to pick up this book and make your way to his appearance at the author’s appearance in the city at the sanctuary at First United Methodist Church (the exact address is listed on the author’s blog below).

I myself haven't read Leviathan or dabbled in the author’s other books such as The Uglies series (something you might want to try if you enjoy Leviathan and Behemoth), but am a big fan of the young adult literary genre, and have heard nothing but good things about Westerfeld’s books from fellow fans of the genre. I definitely plan on picking up one of his books eventually, and I recommend that fans of the young adult genre reading this blog do the same.
