Will Henry and Dr. Warthrop have encountered many horrors together—but can Will endure a monstrumological terror without his mentor?

Will Henry has been through more that seems possible for a boy of fourteen. He’s been on the brink of death on more than one occasion, he has gazed into hell—and hell has stared back at him, and known his face. But through it all, Dr. Warthrop...more

I don't know if I'll survive the wait to September. I'm so anxious to find out what happens, but I'm also dreading the ending. I haven't been this passionate about a book series in a long time. And based on the excerpt Rick Yancey recently shared, I'm 99% sure that this one is going to rip out my heart and stomp on it. I CAN'T HANDLE THE SUSPENSE.

Well...this is the 200th book on my to-read shelf. Does that deserve a party? Well, where Will Henry is involved, I'm quite certain something needs celebrating. That boy is as dour as flour.

Haha, see what I did there? I rhymed, that's what I did.

So this comes out a week after my birthday, or is now scheduled to come out a week after my birthday, in 2013. Please reschedule it to a week earlier, please reschedule it to a week earlier. I would love to have the next installment in one of my favori...more

The fact that the last book is taking two years to write makes me want to throw myself at a Wendigo and then let the good doctor just hack me up to "save" me. The torture is great. There isn't even a cover yet to fuel any wild speculations about what new horrors are next. What gruesome beast is next? Will we be told how the doctor dies(or devoured or mauled or murdered)?

After all that debacle with S&S, I would have though they’d print the final book and not sell it only as an ebook. Maybe it’s not final yet, but if it’s just as an ebook... then damn those that made this decision!
