Here’s an intro & excerpt from Stephenie Meyer’s alien tale The Host

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

I know we’ve abandoned all things TWILIGHT around here, and with good reason. Thing is, Stephenie Meyer’s follow up tale THE HOST, an alien invasion piece, doesn’t look much more inspired. Of course, Andrew Niccol is adapting the book to screen, so we’ll give it the benefit of the doubt for a little longer.

To that end, we now have an intro by the author herself, as well as a lengthy excerpt from the bestselling YA tome. If that sounds like something of interest to you, by all means scroll down and check this shite out!

Starring Saoirse Ronan, Diane Kruger (below), Max Irons, Jake Abel, William Hurt and Frances Fisher:

THE HOST is a riveting story about the survival of love and the human spirit in a time of war. Our world has been invaded by an unseen enemy. Humans become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their bodies remain intact. Most of humanity has succumbed.

THE HOST takes over March 29, 2013.

THE HOST by Stephenie Meyer, the author of THE TWILIGHT SAGA. Read the excerpt. In theaters 3/29!
