Maggie Stiefvater’s New York Times best-selling series The Raven Cycle is being adapted into a graphic novel series by writer Stephanie Williams and artist Sas Milledge. Viking Books for Young Readers will publish the first volume, The Raven Boys: The Graphic Novel, on July 29, 2025, as a hardcover with an MSRP of $24.99 and a paperback with an MSRP of $17.99.
The four-volume fantasy series follows a group of teenagers in a small town where most people have psychic abilities. The lead character, Blue, is the only non-psychic person in her family, but when she teams up with four boys from a nearby boarding school, the teens are drawn into a hidden world of magic that underlies their ordinary existence. The first volume of the prose series was published in 2012 and was nominated for a Bram Stoker Award.
Stiefvater is also the author of the novel Shiver, which will is being adapted into a movie, and the DC Comics original graphic novel Swamp Thing: Twin Branches (see “Preview: Maggie Stiefvater and Morgan Beem’s ‘Swamp Thing’”).
Williams is the writer of Wakanda (see “Marvel to Launch ‘Wakanda’ Without T’Challa”) and co-writer of Nubia and the Amazons (see “DC’s Wonder Woman Plans”). Milledge is the creator of Mamo (see “YALSA Top Ten”) and the artist for DC’s Lost Carnival: A Dick Grayson Graphic Novel (see “Five DC Ink Titles for 2020”).
