Author 411
Photo © 2007 Perry Hagopian Michael Scott Have you ever finished reading a book with your teen book group or advisory board and immediately wanted to call the author to ask why this happened, or why a character reacted in that way, or simply wanted to know what happened after the last page? Random House Children’s Books is proud and excited to bring you AUTHOR 411, an opportunity to do just that! We invited hundreds of librarian facilitators of teen book groups to participate in our ninth AUTHOR 411 event with The Alchemyst and The Magician by Michael Scott, author of The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series. In these fast-paced installments, two teens get swept up in a Transatlantic adventure bringing them face-to-face with mysterious legends of the past, enemies, old and new--and a call to save the world, of course! Following a tremendous response, four lucky book groups were chosen to submit questions to Michael Scott after reading advanced copies of The Alchemyst and The Magician. They came back with especially insightful questions touching on a range of topics--from the origin of Michael Scott's interest in mythology, to the deepening relationships among the series' characters, to burning questions about the upcoming books . . . to which Michael has offered just a few hints to cool us off. Here is what our four teen book groups wanted to ask Michael Scott about The Alchemyst and The Magician. Be forewarned, there are some spoilers to plot elements below. If you don't want to know what happens just yet, pick up The Alchemyst and The Magician (available now), read them, and come back! To get this 411 on Michael Scott, click here.
