Stephenie Meyer has teased more books as part of the Twilight series, and here’s what we know about them so far. Although vampires and werewolves are some of the most popular creatures in pop culture and thus have been adapted to all types of media for years, none can compare to Stephenie Meyer’s vision of these “monsters”. In 2005, Meyer shared her unique vision of them in the novel Twilight, which chronicled the romance between mortal Bella Swan and vampire Edward Cullen, along with all the obstacles and enemies they encountered together.
The Twilight book series is formed by four main novels, in which Bella and Edward came across packs of werewolves (among them Bella’s best friend, Jacob Black) and other vampire covens that wanted to break their relationship, as was the case of the Volturi, or hurt Bella, like James’ group wanted to. In addition to them, Meyer wrote two other novels set in the Twilight universe that can be considered as complementary material (Life and Death, a gender-swapped reimagining of the first book, and Midnight Sun, which is Twilight told from Edward’s perspective), as well as a novella titled The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. Although many years have passed since the final novel, Breaking Dawn, was released, it doesn’t seem like Meyer is completely done with telling stories from this universe.
In August 2020, while promoting Midnight Sun, Meyer revealed she has two more Twilight books planned, but she didn’t share any details at the time, though she did say that she already has them outlined. So, what can Twilight fans expect from those two new books? Here’s everything we know about them.
Will Stephenie Meyer Write A Sequel To Breaking Dawn?
Breaking Dawn brought the arcs of Bella, Edward, and Jacob to an end, though it’s up to every reader and viewer to decide if they were satisfying endings. In it, Bella and Edward had a daughter, Renesmee, a vampire/human hybrid, and Jacob learned he had imprinted on her, and so he wasn’t in love with Bella as he always thought. Now, while two more Twilight books don’t necessarily mean direct sequels to Breaking Dawn, it all points at Meyer wanting to explore what happened after the events of the fourth Twilight novel, but set many years after the end of it – the real trick here is when she will feel like going back to the Twilight universe to write those promised novels
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Sequel Book Release Date
Stephenie Meyer didn’t share a potential release date for any of the future Twilight novels, but she did share her interest in writing something brand new first. Meyer is known for taking her time to write, and if there are obstacles like leaks and more (as happened with Midnight Sun), the release date can take a lot longer than fans would like.
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Sequel Book Story Details
On her official website, Stephenie Meyer explained that, when she gets back to Twilight, the story “will revolve around the same characters” but now with Renesmee and Leah Clearwater as narrators, thus exploring the vampire and werewolf sides of the story. Meyer also added it will be set “five or ten or fifteen years after the end of Breaking Dawn”, though that depends on when she finally gets to write the book, so the time setting, just like the characters, can change once she starts writing.
