Gary Stevenson sold The Trading Game at auction to Currency’s Paul Whitlach in a North American rights agreement. The first YA title contracted, Check & Mate, is a rom-com in which, the publisher said, “a young woman’s life is jump-started when she accidentally defeats the reigning bad boy of chess, inadvertently kicking off a public rivalry-and a match for the heart.” Berkley published Hazelwood’s sophomore novel, Love on the Brain, last month and will be releasing her third novel, Love Theoretically, in August 2023. Three adult novels, which Berkley purchased in a world rights agreement, and two YA titles, to be released by Penguin Young Readers, which it bought in a U.S. Sarah Blumenstock acquired the titles from Thao Le at Sandra Dijkstra Literary Agency following the success of the author’s 2021 debut novel, The Love Hypothesis, which Berkley said has become a global bestseller. Celadon is calling its edition the “first comprehensive portrait of the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol.” Futter added that it will “provide the American people with a full picture of the tragic events of that day.”Īli Hazelwood inked a five-book agreement with Berkley, her current publisher.

Deb Futter acquired world rights from William Morris Endeavor’s Eric Simonoff, and Celadon’s Bill Hamilton will edit the book. Set to be released simultaneously in print and digital formats, the edition will feature an introduction by New Yorker editor David Remnick. Macmillan’s Celadon Books imprint will also publish an edition of the report on the events of January 6, in conjunction with the New Yorker and with an epilogue by Maryland congressman Jamie Raskin. The work, subtitled The Findings of the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol, will, Random House said, be “the official report of the investigation into the attack-perhaps the most vital congressional investigation in American history-with exhibits and witness testimony.” The foreword by Schiff, who is chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, “offers critical insights into this harrowing chapter in American history.” Mark Warren will edit the book. Random House will publish The January 6th Report in fall 2022, featuring a foreword by California congressman Adam Schiff. Random House, Celadon Unveil Editions of the January 6 Report
