Last year, I did a post on a few series with new books out, and it was so
popular that I thought it was time for another. With so many great series in YA,
keeping up with all of them is difficult. I can’t count the times I’ve read a
first book and accidentally missed the sequel a year later, or even more common
for me, missed the third or fourth book. This list is by no means exhaustive,
but here are a few sequels, third books, and final books in series that have
recently released.
Ever since her brother Lief disappeared, Errin's life has gone from bad to
worse. Not only must she care for her sick mother, she has to scrape together
rent money by selling illegal herbal cures. But none of that compares to the
threat of the vengeful Sleeping Prince whom the Queen just awoke from his
enchanted sleep.
When her village is evacuated as part of the war against the Sleeping Prince,
Errin is left desperate and homeless. The only person she can turn to is the
mysterious Silas, a young man who buys deadly poisons from Errin, but won't
reveal why he needs them. Silas promises to help her, but when he vanishes,
Errin must journey across a kingdom on the brink of war to seek another way to
save her mother and herself. But what she finds shatters everything she believed
about her world, and with the Sleeping Prince drawing nearer, Errin must make a
heartbreaking choice that could affect the whole kingdom.
The highly-anticipated finale to the New York Times bestselling 5th
Wave series
The enemy is Other. The enemy is us. They’re down here, they’re up there,
they’re nowhere. They want the Earth, they want us to have it. They came to wipe
us out, they came to save us.
But beneath these riddles lies one truth: Cassie has been betrayed. So has
Ringer. Zombie. Nugget. And all 7.5 billion people who used to live on our
planet. Betrayed first by the Others, and now by ourselves.
In these last days, Earth’s remaining survivors will need to decide what’s
more important: saving themselves . . . or saving what makes us human.
The Maze Runner meets Scott Westerfeld in the second novel in this
gripping and romantic YA series about teens abducted from Earth by an
otherworldly race—from Megan Shepherd, the acclaimed author of the Madman’s
Daughter series.
They’ve left the cage—but they’re not free yet.
After their failed escape attempt, Cora, Lucky, and Mali have been demoted to
the lowest level of human captives and placed in a safari-themed environment
called the Hunt, along with wild animals and other human outcasts. They must
serve new Kindred masters—Cora as a lounge singer, Lucky as an animal wrangler,
and Mali as a safari guide—and follow new rules or face dangerous consequences.
Meanwhile, Nok and Rolf have been moved into an enormous dollhouse, observed
around the clock by Kindred scientists interested in Nok’s pregnancy. And Leon,
the only one who successfully escaped, has teamed up with villainous Mosca
black-market traders.
The former inhabitants of the Cage are threatened on all fronts—and maybe
worst of all, one of the Hunt’s Kindred safari guests begins to play a twisted
game of cat and mouse with Cora. Separated and constantly under watch, she
and the others must struggle to stay alive, never mind find a way back to each
other. When Cassian secretly offers to train Cora to develop her psychic
abilities—to prove the worthiness of humanity in a series of tests called the
Gauntlet—she’ll have to decide fast if she dares to trust the Kindred who
betrayed her, or if she can forge her own way to freedom.
