Long-Rumored ‘Twilight’ Book ‘Midnight Sun’ To Be Published In August

The long-promised Twilight novel from Edward Cullen’s point of view will finally be published this summer.

Midnight Sun was supposed to publish over a decade ago, immediately after the final Twilight novel, Breaking Dawn, in 2008. The book recounts the events of Twilight, but from Edward’s point of view instead of Bella’s. Meyer released tidbits for fans, but the publication was canceled when a manuscript leaked and then tabled while the films went into production.

The Twilight novels exploded in popularity in the early-2000s, telling the story of a teenage girl who falls in love with an immortal vampire. The books have sold over 100 million copies worldwide and the Lionsgate film series has grossed over $3.3 billion worldwide.

Midnight Sun will hit bookshelves and online stores on August 4.
