This is the new cover for Alyson new series Soul Seekers #1 in the series Fated:) Title: Fated (Soul Seekers #1) Author: Alyson Noel Publisher: St. Martins Giffin Pages: 304 Expected Release Date: May 2012 It’s a young adult supernatural novel and it’s a completely new world. This book is going to be set in the Southwest, most likely New Mexico. So it’s going to have a very different atmosphere, landscape and feel, and it’ll explore the ability to walk through the Upperworld and the Underworld and to walk amongst the dead. It’s about a 16-year-old girl, who starts suffering the symptoms of what appears to be a psychotic break. But her grandmother recognizes it for what it is: her heredity ability—her father had it as well—to walk between the Upperworld and the Underworld.  What do you think? I personally like it:)
