A Clockwork Princess snippet released today

There has been quite a bit of excitement these past few days. From rumours of casting to actual casting (and finally having Cassie return to Twitter-yay!) And so it appears, the return of book snippets.

This time it's related to the ever long awaited -and still waiting-  Clockwork Princess which we get in March 2013.  I was a little late in the knowledge of this but thanks to my TMI friends I got caught up.
For all those that haven't read it yet, this piece involves both Will and Jem and looks a little something like this (enjoy!):

Will rose slowly to his feet. He could not believe he was doing what he was doing, but it was clear that he was, clear as the silver rim around the black of Jem’s eyes. “If there is a life after this one,” he said, “let me meet you in it, James Carstairs.”

“There will be other lives.” Jem held his hand out, and for a moment, they clasped hands, as they had done during their parabatai ritual, reaching across twin rings of fire to interlace their fingers with each other. “The world is a wheel,” he said. “When we rise or fall, we do it together.”

Will tightened his grip on Jem’s hand, which felt thin as twigs in his. “Well, then,” he said, through a tight throat, “since you say there will be another life for me, let us both pray I do not  make as colossal a mess of it as I have this one.”

For more up-to-date news please keep checking back. We live to serve :) In the meantime, check out Cassandra Jean's new drawing of Jem!
