Maggie Stiefvater

The Scorpio Races

First Edition Pre-loved Hardcover

As she did in her bestselling “Shiver” trilogy, author Maggie Stiefvater takes us to the breaking point, where both love and life meet their greatest obstacles, and only the strong of heart can survive. The Scorpio Races is an unforgettable reading experience.

Some race to win. Others race to survive.

It happens at the start of every November: the Scorpio Races. Riders attempt to keep hold of their water horses long enough to make it to the finish line. Some riders live. Others die.

At age nineteen, Sean Kendrick is the returning champion. He is a young man of few words, and if he has any fears, he keeps them buried deep, where no one else can see them. Puck Connolly is different. She never meant to ride in the Scorpio Races. But fate hasn’t given her much of a choice. So she enters the competition — the first girl ever to do so.

She is in no way prepared for what is going to happen.

More Information & Critical Reviews

Maggie Stiefvater is the New York Times bestselling author of The Shiver Trilogy, The Raven Cycle, and The Scorpio Races. Artist. Driver of things with wheels. Avid reader. All of Maggie Stiefvater’s life decisions have been formed by a desire to leave a mark, resulting in spray-painted cars, sharpie-covered computer printers, ink-splattered walls, and stories told in books, in magazines, and on stages. Maggie Stiefvater lives in the middle of nowhere, Virginia with her charmingly straight-laced husband, two kids, two neurotic dogs, and a 1973 Camaro named Loki.

2012 Michael L. Printz Honor Book.

‘[Stiefvater] creates her world so fully that it’s a delight to lose oneself in it. Highly recommended.’ Toronto Star

‘Tense, atmospheric, and utterly original.’ People Magazine

‘Fans of Stiefvater’s Shiver will fall under her descriptive trance once again.’ Voya

‘The monstrous capaill uisce may be the scariest mythical creature we’ve ever encountered in any story. They are violent, unpredictable, and generally untrustworthy, making every page of the novel exciting and full of surprises.’ Seventeen Magazine
