Soooo. I’ve been MIA for a while now (RL got the best of me. Work is seriously draining. Really). Moving on, here’s a recap of what happened since the last update.
WARNING: SPOILER ALERT
KEYS TO THE REPOSITORY Tweet-Sneaks:

This is a sneak peek on the WOLF PACT chapter.

- “He remembered everything. The silent birth. The frightened midwives.”
I am thinking this is Charles Force. Anyone of you remember that part in TVAL that Bliss is the son of Allegra and Lucifer? So yeah, I think this would be Bliss’ birth and someone who was in the vicinity of the birth. What do you guys think?

- "Vesperus Leviathan was known as one of the cruelest Silver Bloods who ever walked the earth."
This is pretty self explanatory if you’ve read the books. Leviathan is the Silver Blood contained in Rio de Janeiro under the Christ the Redeemer's statue. Leviathan is the one that killed Lawrence Van Alen.

Now, this one is from the Misguided Angel chapter. I’m still trying to grasp whoever is pertained here. Could be Jack and Charles. Or somebody else. Well, we’ll have to wait and see,
though we’d like to get your take on this.
So that’s the run down on the sneak peeks from the days I was not around to update. Head over to the forum
and give your two cents about these.
Now on with other news about
KEYS TO THE REPOSITORY,
MISGUIDED ANGEL,
BLOODY VALENTINE,
WOLF PACT,
and
WITCHES OF EAST END.
So for the confused people out
there,
here’s a run down on the book titles stated above.
- KEYS TO THE REPOSITORY – this is a companion book about the Blue Bloods universe. Think Demi God files for Percy Jackson. It has information and short stories about the characters, as well as the happenings, in the series.
- MISGUIDED ANGEL – this is the 5th book in the Blue Bloods series, the one that comes after The Van Alen Legacy. Melissa dela Cruz also pointed out that
Misguided Angel is not the last book in the Blue Bloods series (she was actually has a big outline for Blue Bloods, so cheers to more books!)
- BLOODY VALENTINE – as promised, we said that we shall update you on what Bloody Valentine is since the cover said it’s a novella, and from what we’ve gathered, people speculated that this is the 6th book in the Blue Bloods series. Well, we will now clear up the speculation. Blood Valentine is
not the 6th book in the series, but it is a stand alone novella of the series. More on this later on.
- WOLF PACT — this is a spin-off series of the Blue Bloods series that includes Bliss Llewellyn’s search for the wolves that may help the Blue Bloods in defeating Leviathan.
- WITCHES OF EAST END – this is Mel’s new adult series set in the Blue Bloods universe, but with new character and a new story.
That enough? On with the news.
The advanced copies of KttR is now with Melissa. Check it out!
BLUE BLOODS: KEYS TO THE REPOSITORY is set to be out on June 29
th and
MISGUIDED ANGEL is on October 26
th this year.
No definite date yet for the release of KEYS TO THE REPOSITORY
abroad (including the Philippines), but the UK date is the same as the US date (June 29
th), as well as Canada.
As of the moment, Melissa is working on the
final draft for BLOODY VALENTINE; also she is working on the
first draft of
WITCHES OF EAST END.
Now, here comes the update on BLUE BLOODS: BLOODY VALENTINE. As stated earlier in this post,
Bloody Valentine is a stand alone-novella and includes three love stories. One of which is Jack and Sky’s love story (
yeah, I know! Squeel with me!). Mel is keeping the other two a secret for now.
Mimi & Kingsley and Bliss & Dylan’s perhaps? Well, that’s my
speculation.
Bloody Valentine is tentatively due out in December
2010/January 2011.
WITCHES of EAST END is Mel’s adult series, set in the same universe as Blue Bloods though it has new characters, as well as a new story. According to our beloved author
one of the witches in Witches of East End makes a cameo on Bloody Valentine. The witch has a love connection with one of the vamps in BV. (
I’m stoked for this!)WOLF PACT is also a new series, but it is a Blue Bloods spin-off, that includes Bliss Llewelyn and a new set of characters. As far as I know, this is in part of Allegra’s wish for Bliss to seek the help of the wolves to defeat Leviathan. I wonder if Dylan will make an appearance in this series.
Witches is out next year. Wolf Pact in 2012.
Now, knowing that Wolf Pact is not due out till 2012, it’s
safe to say that the Blue Bloods series will not end anytime soon. Even if Wolf Pact is a BB spin-off, the fact of the matter is, WP has a huge connection in BB and will most probably meet at one time.
Again, we’d like to hear your opinions! Join us and the other Blue Bloods fans in discussing about these books and then some!
