HarperCollins announces two-book deal with Veronica Roth

HarperCollins has acquired world English rights to a new YA series from ‘Divergent’ author Veronica Roth. The duology, described as being ‘in the vein of Star Wars’, follows the ‘story of a boy who forms an unlikely alliance with an enemy. Both desperate to escape their oppressive lives, they help each other attain what they most desire: for one, redemption, and the other, revenge.’ The first book will be published in 2017 and the second in 2018.
