Book: The Sequel

Book: The Sequel

       iOS iPhone

After the last page is turned and the cover closed on a great book, is it really over?

Ever wonder what happens to Harry Potter after, say, twenty years of marriage and a steady government gig?

Or what Karl Marx would say about today’s financial crisis?

What did Scarlett O’Hara really think about tomorrow?

What comes after "ever after?"

BOOK: The Sequel dares to answer these burning questions with imagined first sentences from would-be follow-ups to classics from The Bible to Lord of the Rings, and from Green Eggs and Ham to Hamlet. 

A delicious and unexpected return engagement from favorite characters like Jane Eyre, Ebenezer Scrooge, Jay Gatsby, Holden Caulfield, Wilbur the Pig, and Captain Ahab, BOOK: The Sequel is a fun App for book
lovers everywhere, or anyone to whom "The End" is simply the starting point for their imagination.

Take a look, read some sequels, then submit your own - And who knows, yours just might be added to this application in the near future!
Pick a book. Imagine its sequel. Write the first sentence. Give it a great title. Browse BOOK: The Sequel Now!
