Coming Attraction: The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland and Led the Revels There

Eeep!  I'm going to be reviewing The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making in a few days here on FTF, but when I came across this earlier this week, I knew I wanted to work it in as soon as possible and make sure it got a Fairy Tale Fortnight mention.  
Anyone else eagerly awaiting the chance to see what became of September's shadow?

Oh - AND IT'S PURPLE.



The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland and Led the Revels There by Catherynne M. Valente
272 pages
Expected publication: October 2nd 2012 by Feiwel & Friends
September returns to Fairyland to reunite with A-Through-L, Saturday, and Gleam, and to confront her shadow-self, who has become the queen of Fairyland-Below, the upside-down world beneath the Fairyland of the first novel, filled with creatures of water and shadow, tales of ancient Fairyland before the human world was born, and not a few hungry buffins, blind birds of ice and moonlight. The yearly revels of Fairyland-Below climax in a mysterious rite September must avert or else lose her shadow forever.

  1. I'm very anxiously awaiting it. I love that Fairyland-Below is upside-down. How could it not be upside-down.

    I picked up a couple of her other books too and I'm anxious to get to them.

  4. YES! I am SO excited for this one, in fact, I'm hoping I'll like it better than the first because it seems as if it'll have a bit of a darker feel. Not that the first was all sunshine and rainbows, but I'm excited about the shadows...also LOVE the cover.
