If you are mesmerized by the story and the adept incorporation of weirdly themed images in the book Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs, then you are in for another supernatural treat. The author has long announced that he's been busy working with the sequel entitled Hollow City, but it is just recently that we get some full details of the book.
The complete synopsis of the book and the equally haunting official cover of Hollow City have been revealed. The cover which debuted over Entertainment Weekly is as beautiful as the first book's cover, featuring yet again a girl and this time, instead of levitating, she has a hollow space for a stomach and still manages to survive.

Synopsis
Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children was the surprise best seller of 2011—an unprecedented mix of YA fantasy and vintage photography that enthralled readers and critics alike. Publishers Weekly called it “an enjoyable, eccentric read, distinguished by well-developed characters, a believable Welsh setting, and some very creepy monsters.”
This second novel begins in 1940, immediately after the first book ended. Having escaped Miss Peregrine’s island by the skin of their teeth, Jacob and his new friends must journey to London, the peculiar capital of the world. Along the way, they encounter new allies, a menagerie of peculiar animals, and other unexpected surprises.
Complete with dozens of newly discovered (and thoroughly mesmerizing) vintage photographs, this new adventure will delight readers of all ages.
Hollow City by Ransom Riggs will be released on January 14, 2014, but is now available for pre-order at Amazon.
