Waiting on Wednesday #3

Waiting on Wednesday was created by Breaking the Spine, to showcase upcoming books!

My Waiting on Wednesday pick this week comes from one of my favourite authors - Richelle Mead. A couple months ago I finished Iron Crowned, and without giving anything away... My mind was totally blown!!! I started reading the third book in the series, thinking it would be the last one. I guess I should have seen it coming, but I was really just so into the books that I wasn't thinking about would happen in the future of the books. I really can't wait till Feb 2012 for this one to be released!

Shadow Heir by Richelle Mead
Goodreads | Book Depository

From Goodreads (may contain spoilers if you haven't read the series! Read at your own risk!): "#1 New York Times bestselling author Richelle Mead returns to the Otherworld, a mystic land inextricably linked to our own--and balanced precariously on one woman's desperate courage... 

Shaman-for-hire Eugenie Markham strives to keep the mortal realm safe from trespassing entities. But as the Thorn Land's prophecy-haunted queen, there's no refuge for her and her soon-to-be-born-children when a mysterious blight begins to devastate the Otherworld... 

The spell-driven source of the blight isn't the only challenge to Eugenie's instincts. Fairy king Dorian is sacrificing everything to help, but Eugenie can't trust the synergy drawing them back together. The uneasy truce between her and her shape shifter ex-lover Kiyo is endangered by secrets he can't--or won't--reveal. And as a formidable force rises to also threaten the human world, Eugenie must use her own cursed fate as a weapon--and risk the ultimate sacrifice..."

What are you waiting on this Wednesday?

Happy reading!
