While the first book in a series acts as an introduction to
the setting and the character, the following books can delve more easily into
the narrative seeing as how the reader is already familiar with most of the
material. The writer can focus on things or people who did not feature as
heavily in the first story, while still introducing new elements to keep the
reader intrigued. Michael Grant’s Hunger
is a good example of such a sequel. Read on after the jump.
