Fifteen years after the first release of the Twilight novel, author Stephanie Meyer revealed the fifth installment of the series will be a prequel told from Edward’s point of view.
During an interview with Good Morning America, Stephanie Meyer announced the release of ‘Midnight Sun.’ Meyer says the book will be told from Edward Cullen’s perspective and will discuss his life before meeting Bella Swan. Fans knew of the book back in 2008 when Meyer teased the first chapter on her website but shelved the project after more chapters leaked to the public.
