“We’re looking forward to building on the tremendous success and the adoration toward The Clique series,” said Peter Murrieta.  “We see a world that doesn’t just begin where the books left off; it enhances, enriches and brings the characters, the story and the references into 2010.  By doing this, we’ll not only introduce a whole new audience to The Clique, we’ll appeal to the original fans too.”
