'The Anthropocene Reviewed' By John Green Finally Gets An Official Cover

The first non-fiction and 6th book by John Green is almost upon our grasp. In his next book John Green gets personal and reveals his inner thoughts and observations about things. This in turn reveals his hidden and inner workings, something that we can't always get from fiction novels. This is a real-world point of view of things that gives us a facet of the author.

The book is called The Anthropocene Reviewed, which is adapted from John Green's podcast of the same title. The book has been around for pre-order for some time but it is only just recently that we get to see the official cover. And what's more, we will be getting the first edition with the author's signature, so expect some surprise doodle in your copy if you are lucky.

Check out the official cover of The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green.

Synopsis

A deeply moving and insightful collection of personal essays from #1 bestselling author John Green.

The Anthropocene is the current geological age, in which human activity has profoundly shaped the planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from his groundbreaking podcast, John Green reviews different facets of the human-centered planet—from the QWERTY keyboard and Halley’s Comet to Penguins of Madagascar—on a five-star scale.

Complex and rich with detail, the Anthropocene’s reviews have been praised as “observations that double as exercises in memoiristic empathy.” John Green’s gift for storytelling shines throughout this artfully curated collection that includes both beloved essays and several all-new pieces exclusive to the book.

The Desert Prince by Peter V. Brett

Synopsis

A brand-new epic fantasy adventure set in the beloved world of the Demon Cycle, following a new generation of heroes, from New York Times bestselling author Peter V. Brett

Fifteen years have passed since the end of the war with demons, creatures of darkness who have hunted the night and plagued humanity since time out of mind. The heroes of humanity’s hour of need have become legend, and those who remain struggle to escape their shadows.

Olive Paper and Darin Bales have grown up in this new peaceful world. Demons have been all but destroyed, but dangers still lurk for the children of heroes.

Olive, Princess of Hollow, has her entire life planned out by her mother, Duchess Leesha Paper: a steady march on a checklist to prepare her for succession. The more her mother writes the script, the more Olive rails against playing the parts she is assigned.

Darin faces challenges of a different kind. Though free to choose his own path, the weight of legacy hangs heavy around his shoulders. It isn’t easy being the son of the man people say saved the world. Everyone expects greatness from Darin, but the only thing he’s ever been great at is hiding.

But when Olive and Darin step across the wards one night, they learn the demons are not all gone, and those that remain hunger for revenge. Events are set in motion that only prophecy can foresee as Olive and Darin seek to find their own places in the world in time to save it again.


The Desert Prince by Peter V. Brett will be released on August 3, 2021.
