Alcon Wants Stohl's "Icons"

Alcon Entertainment is hoping to acquire the film rights to author Margaret Stohl's young-adult novel "Icons: The Book of Sorrow" says Variety.

The debut novel in a planned 4-5 book series and set on a future Earth post-alien apocalyptic invasion. The aliens have turned buildings into deadly icons, capable of shutting down all forms of energy and reducing living things to dust in seconds. The only hope lies in four children born immune to the power.

Alcon is already adapting the first book in a trilogy of novels by Stohl, the supernatural drama the supernatural love story "Beautiful Creatures" which will open next year.
