“Waiting on Wednesday” is a weekly event hosted by Jill at the Breaking The Spine. It showcases upcoming releases we’re anticipating!
My pick of the week is:
Sea of Shadows (Age of Legends #1)
by Kelley Armstrong
Coming: 8 April 2014
Publisher: HarperCollins
Summary:
In the Forest of the Dead, where the empire’s worst criminals are exiled, twin sisters Moria and Ashyn are charged with a dangerous task. For they are the Keeper and the Seeker, and each year they must quiet the enraged souls of the damned.
Only this year, the souls will not be quieted.
Ambushed and separated by an ancient evil, the sisters’ journey to find each other sends them far from the only home they’ve ever known. Accompanied by a stubborn imperial guard and a dashing condemned thief, the girls cross a once-empty wasteland, now filled with reawakened monsters of legend, as they travel to warn the emperor. But a terrible secret awaits them at court—one that will alter the balance of their world forever.
Why I’m excited:
This just sounds so exciting and it stars two heroines! Strong female leads are always a big draw for me. Plus I’m always on the look out for a good fantasy!
Why I need you to be excited:
It’s a new series from Kelley Armstrong and her first YA venture. I haven’t read anything by her so I can’t woo you with her previous works. But this one sounds really intriguing. I think this is a good one for fellow fantasy lovers to check out!
