Waiting on Wednesday: The Fire Sermon Trilogy

"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

That being said, here is what we at All Booked Up YA are waiting on this Wednesday!

The Fire Sermon Trilogy by Francesca Haig (@FrancescaHaig)

Expected publication: TBD

Summary Courtesy of Deadline.com
400 years after a nuclear apocalypse, society is left without technology and all humans are twins. One of each pair is physically perfect, and they are called Alphas, while the other, the Omega, bears some mutation. The apartheid society forces the mutated twins to settlements, even though when one twin dies, so does the other. This is the relationship between a brother and sister twin, and what happens when he becomes a leader in the repressed society

DreamWorks has picked up the rights to The Fire Sermon along with six UK publishers nabbing up the book rights of this trilogy.  The US publishing rights are being auctioned off today, July 10th!!  This sounds like one not to be missed! Film is expected 2016...so we'll have to wait a while but hopefully the series will come out way before 2016!  Can't wait!
