Wesley Adams at
Farrar, Straus and Giroux has acquired North American rights to Brian
Falkner's untitled, two-volume YA alt-history in which Napoleon crashes his
way to victory at Waterloo by unleashing an unstoppable battlefield weapon: a
legion of giant, carnivorous dinosaurs, imported from the wilds of the
unexplored Americas. Only a boy who knows the emperor's secret to commanding
the beasts stands in the way of his plan for world domination.
Publication for volume
one is scheduled for June 2015, the bicentennial of Waterloo.
Nancy Gallt of
the Nancy Gallt Agency was the agent for North American rights on behalf of the
Frances Plumpton Literary Agency.
Walker Books Australia, which holds foreign
language rights, will publish its edition simultaneously.
