Trailer Thursday: The Scorpio Races

I discovered the Trailer Thursday meme on The Page Turners Blog.


Today’s book trailer feature is The Scorpio Races. This stop-motion trailer was created by Maggie Stiefvater herself. She is uber talented!

Goodreads Synopsis:

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 chance. So she enters the competition — the first girl ever to do so. She is in no way prepared for what is going to happen.

I’m so excited for this book! I’m a sucker for horses… and Maggie Stiefvater has said this is her favorite book she’s written. I love Maggie’s writing so I’m really looking forward to curling up with this one!
