Mary Robinette Kowal sold two new novels in her Shades of Milk and Honey universe to editor Liz Gorinsky at Tor Books, via agent Jennifer Jackson. The books, to follow Shades… and Glamour in Glass, will be called Without a Summer and Valour and Vanity.
Kowal describes Without… as “like Emma against the Luddite Uprising set in the Year Without a Summer.” Valour… “is sort of like Jane Austen writes Ocean’s Eleven.”
She talks more about the sale, and learning of it, in this post.
