Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly feature hosted at Breaking The Spine that spotlights those can't-wait-to-get-my-hands-on-them books that we are eagerly awaiting!
This week I'm absolutely dying and I will be stalking the postman like there's no tomorrow for my preordered copy of Heir of Fire by Sarah J Maas! I'm SO DAMNED excited for this book I preordered the US hardback since it releases on Sept 2nd so I don't have to wait till my Kindle preorder downloads on Sept 11th!! Not happy that Amazon ES decided to go with UK dates on this one!
Goodreads Summary:
"Lost and broken, Celaena Sardothien’s only thought is to avenge the savage death of her dearest friend: as the King of Adarlan’s Assassin, she is bound to serve this tyrant, but he will pay for what he did. Any hope Celaena has of destroying the king lies in answers to be found in Wendlyn. Sacrificing his future, Chaol, the Captain of the King’s Guard, has sent Celaena there to protect her, but her darkest demons lay in that same place. If she can overcome them, she will be Adarlan’s biggest threat – and his own toughest enemy.
While Celaena learns of her true destiny, and the eyes of Erilea are on Wendlyn, a brutal and beastly force is preparing to take to the skies. Will Celaena find the strength not only to win her own battles, but to fight a war that could pit her loyalties to her own people against those she has grown to love?"
Why am I eagerly awaiting Heir of Fire? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? How can I not when Crown of Midnight gave me the biggest book hangover of last year?? And that ending?? CRUELEST OF CRUELS cliffhangers!! And every book is this series has been better than the previous, so that's quite saying something!!
What are you all (im)patiently awaiting this week?
YES PILI I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS!!!!!!!!!! I just loved it so much, I really, really hope you do too:)
ReplyDeleteYESSSSSSS!! I'm so crossing everything crossable so my preorder arrives on release day or Wednesday! The timing couldn't be better cause I only work two days next week!
DeleteI'm reading this one right now, Pili!! :D It's good so far! I hope you enjoy it. <33
ReplyDeleteThanks Aimee!! I just cannot wait!! =D
DeleteI can't wait to get my hands on this one as well, although I'm a tiny bit afraid that the whole Chaol drama might effectively ruin it. Let's hope not, though. I have some faith, at least.
ReplyDeleteFor what I've seen while skimming reviews is that is very little romance in this one, for what that's worth!
DeleteI've seen this book around so much, and it sounds like a great read. I hope you enjoy it when it comes out!

Thank you, the whole series so far is fantastic and I highly recommend it!
DeleteThe thing is, there are MORE books, which probably means MORE cliffhangers and MORE love triangle angst! Pili, what are we going to dooooooo? *cries* I'm so anxious for this one, too. Kim's review goes up tomorrow, I think.

I know... I totally foresee a book hangover of dramatic proportions next week once I get it, read it and ignore the world while doing so!
DeleteAnd give that there are 6 books planned, after this one we'll have 3 more to come!! Which is awesome cause YAY more books and awful cause the wait and the cliffhangers!!!!
Ahhh, yes. I liked this one a lot more than I liked book two. Love triangle kind of disappears! I hope you enjoy it when you read it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog! Have a fabulous week :)
