The CW series ' The100' was one of the breakaway hits of the past season. Now the author of the book that the show was based on, Kass Morgan, is opening up about her new book, 'Day 21' and the new season of The 100.
Kass Morgan, recently spoke with Enstars about where she got the inspiration for the series:
“The actual seed of the idea came from my editor at Alloy, who liked the idea of teen juvenile delinquents being sent to Earth. And so, that's what she basically gave to me, which was a few lines of just a basic idea. And then I had pretty much complete freedom to go and run with it.
“You find inspiration in all places. Like you go for a walk and something catches your eye or conversations you overhear in coffee shops. It's sort of interesting - something is both a product of all of your past experiences and all the things that inform you while you're writing.”
Morgan has now released the follow up to the first book, titled “Day 21,” which she goes on to preview:
“The characters face new challenges. It definitely tests the relationships that were formed in the first book. And, it's sort of like a really intense version of summer camp. You know, how you were away at camp for two weeks but you feel like you've known the people forever and they're your best friends. But, you really haven't known each other for that long. So these characters form these really intense bonds and they are definitely going to be tested in unexpected ways by challenges nobody saw coming.”
Morgan went on to add that the new book, will have little to no bearing on the upcoming season:
“It's completely separate. My editors have been working with the studio to make sure that the big, major plot twists align... but I think for the most part they're going their separate ways, which I think is really fun. People who come to the property through the show could read the books and it will be entirely new and fresh to them and vice versa.”
