Chris Colfer is seeing a long and varied future for his “Land of Stories” fantasy books.
The actor, who played Kurt Hummel on the TV show “Glee,” has signed a new multiyear deal for his best-selling series.
Little, Brown Books for Young Readers announced the agreement Tuesday. It will extend “Land of Stories” to a sixth and (presumed) final book, along with a graphic novel and fairy tale collection based on the series. Four books have come out so far.
The sixth book, currently untitled, is scheduled for July 2017, followed in the fall of that year by the graphic novel. The fairy tale book will come out in the fall of 2016.
According to Little, Brown, the “Land of Stories” series has sold more than 1 million copies and has been translated into 16 languages.
