Chaos Walking : Book Three - The Title Revealed...


...by Patrick Ness on his website today:

"The wait is over! Here it is at last, the title that follows The Knife of Never Letting Go and The Ask and the Answer to finish off the Chaos Walking trilogy with a bang.

On page 430 of The Knife of Never Letting Go, Todd has a flash of memory: “War makes monsters of men, I hear Ben saying.” On page 102 of The Ask and the Answer, Viola remembers it, too: “War makes monsters of men, I say, quoting Ben...” And in the final volume, they’ve come to it at last. They’re going to find out for themselves how true that is, whether they want to or not. So I hereby give to you today, the title of the final volume of the Chaos Walking trilogy:

Monsters of Men. Out May 2010 in the UK."
