After a decade — no time loops needed — it’s time to bid goodbye to the peculiars.
Ransom Riggs concludes his New York Times-bestselling series with “The Desolations of Devil’s Acre” (Dutton/Penguin, $22.99). He’ll discuss the book virtually on Thursday via BookPeople, with fellow bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.
The world first met Jacob Portman in 2011, when Riggs wove eerie vintage photographs into his tale about children with supernatural powers, “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.” Since then, readers have flocked to four more novels in the series, graphic novel adaptations, the 2016 Tim Burton-directed feature film and a standalone story collection. Over email, Riggs said it was “emotional” to end the series.
