<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><b><i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Rainbow Rowell's epic fantasy, the Simon Snow trilogy, concludes with <i>Any Way the Wind Blows</i>.</b> <p/>In <i>Carry On</i>, Simon Snow and his friends realized that everything they thought they understood about the world might be wrong. And in <i>Wayward Son</i>, they wondered whether everything they understood about<i> themselves</i> might be wrong. <p/>In<i> Any Way the Wind Blows</i>, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha have to decide how to move forward. <p/>For Simon, that means deciding whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages -- and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had <i>enough</i>. <p/><i>Any Way the Wind Blows </i>takes the gang back to England, back to Watford, and back to their families for their longest and most emotionally wrenching adventure yet. <p/>This book is a <i>finale</i>. It tells secrets and answers questions and lays ghosts to rest. <p/><i>Carry On</i> was conceived as a book about Chosen One stories; <i>Any Way the Wind </i><i>Blows </i>is an ending about endings. About catharsis and closure, and how we choose to move on from the traumas and triumphs that try to define us.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <p>Praise for the Simon Snow trilogy: <p/>At last! A sequel to <i>Carry On</i>...every bit as fine as the first...overall excellence of a book in which every vista pleases and every character delights. Carefully plotted, the book is a classic page-turner right to the open ending which, o frabjous day, promises a sequel to the sequel! One can hardly wait. --<i>Booklist </i>(Starred Review) on <i>Wayward Son</i> <p/>Rowell imbues her magic with awe and spectacle. It's a powerful, politically minded allegory about sexual, ethnic and class identity - with a heady shot of teenage lust. --<i>New York Times Book Review </i>on <i>Carry On</i> <p/>It's a brilliantly addictive, genuinely romantic story about teenagers who can't be neatly sorted into houses, coping with stress and loss and the confusion of just trying to be who they are. It's as if Rowell turned the Harry Potter books inside out, and is showing us the marvelous, subversive stuffing inside. --<i>Time Magazine </i>on <i>Carry On</i> <p/>Full of heart and humor, this fantastical tale is a worthy addition to the wizarding-school genre. --<i>People Magazine </i>on <i>Carry On</i> <p/><i>Carry On </i>is the fantasy book I didn't know I'd been waiting for for years...Rowell's mystery, magic, and political intrigue is the sexiest love story I've read in a long time. --Julie Beck, for <i>The Atlantic</i> <p/>The funny, wised-up dialogue, the tumultuous, sweet, and sexy love story--is grade-A Rowell...almost impossible to put down. --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> (starred review) on <i>Carry On</i> <p/>Stock up on copies--this one begs to be reread. --<i>Booklist </i>(starred review) on <i>Carry On</i> <p/>With rock-solid worldbuilding, a sweet and believable romance subplot, and satisfying ending, <i>Carry On</i> is a monumentally enjoyable reading experience. Hand this to fans of Rowell, Harry Potter, love stories, and magic. --<i>School Library Journal</i> (starred review) <p/><i>Carry On</i> is a triumph. Thrilling and sexy, funny and shocking, deeply moving and very, very magical. Trust me, you have never, ever seen a wizard school like this. --Lev Grossman, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Magicians</i> trilogy</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> RAINBOW ROWELL lives in Omaha, Nebraska, with her husband and two sons. She's also the author of <i>Wayward Son</i>, <i>Carry On</i>, <i> Landline</i>, <i> Fangirl</i>, <i> Eleanor & Park</i>, and <i>Attachments
