Yes, there's a third book in the series! Plus, three short stories in 2010
One of the questions I've been asked a bunch lately is what's next. I'll update my website soon, but here's the scoop: there's a third book in the series and it should be coming out in Spring 2011. It's already written and the title is The Dark and Hollow Places. I've seen a cover comp and in total love -- can't wait until I'm able to share it!
I also have three short stories set in the World after the Return (the same world as The Forest of Hands and Teeth and The Dead-Tossed Waves).
Antho title: Kiss Me Deadly: 13 Tales of Paranormal Love
Antho editor: Trisha Telep
Release date: July 27, 2010
Short story title: Hare Moon
Short story description: my story is about Sister Tabitha from The Forest of Hands and Teeth when she was Mary's age. It answers a few more questions about the village, the Sisterhood and Tabitha's motivation. As it turns out, she was quite the passionate teen :)
Antho title: The Living Dead 2
Antho editor: John Joseph Adams
Release date: September 2010
Short story title: Flotsam & Jetsam
Short story description: right around the time of the Return, when no one really knows what's going on, a group of seniors go on their senior cruise and infection breaks out on the ship. Two boys escape in a life raft -- one of them's infected.
Antho title: Zombies vs. Unicorns
Antho editors: Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier
Release date: September 21, 2010
Short story title: Bougainvillea
Short story description: set about ten years after the Return on the island of Curacao, a girl discovers what it takes to survive as pirates threaten.

I'm so glad to have the title to the third book. I knew there HAD to be more, but was so terrified there might not be. And knowing about the short stories can tide me over. Phew.
PS - you said on twitter you were coming to New Orleans. I don't suppose it was for a signing? :-(
Guess that's a few more anthos to add to my list. Congrats, Carrie.
Oh, can't wait!
Awesome news, thanks for sharing!
Zombies AND Pirates? Oh Carrie you make my heart go a-flutter!!
btw congrats on your nuptials!
I haven't finished Book 2 yet, but I'm so excited that there's another one on the way! Plus, I love short stories. Will be looking for those immediately! :)
The 1st Living Dead antho rocked! Glad to see you have a story in there. And glad there is a 3rd book! :-D Congratulations, Carrie.
YAY! Carrie , I am so excited to know that you have written the short stories so that we get more of the characters and the world. Sister Tabitha, I have often wondered about her! So thanks so much. AND the ship story...aaahhhh It sounds awesome! Love ur writing style, cant wait for book 3!
Just finished "The Dead-Tossed Waves." 0-o
I need, need, need the next book now! I must confess I was disappointed when I began the book because I wanted Mary's story to continue right where it left off, but this book was just as fantastic. Loved it!!
Ok i will admit it i am a 40 year old Post Apocalyptic fiction nut who was insomniac and read "the forest of hands and teeth" in its entirety last night. I am hooked I have already put the 2nd book on hold at the library and read one of the short stories this morning......

Does reading The Living Dead 2 or Zombies vs. Unicorns, help explain how the whole Return happened?
Also, I'm reading The Dead-Tossed Waves and Oh.My.Gosh it is so intense! :)
Will The Forest of Hands and Teeth trilogy become a movie?
I just barely finished ready The Forest of Hands and Teeth, and let me say I was very mad that Travis and Jed are gone, especially Travis. I thought the story was to be about Mary and Travis and their love and surviving and finding the ocean. I almost don't even want to read the second book because of it. Is it even about Mary still or is it a whole other story? Will I find out what happened to Cass Harry Jacob and Argos?
