Waiting on Wednesday (#138): Endure by Sara B. Larson


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


This week, I'm featuring:


Endure by Sara B. Larson
Book Three of the Defy series
Publisher: Scholastic Press
Publication Date: January 5, 2016

Summary (from Goodreads):

The remarkable third novel in Sara B. Larson's bestselling Defy series!

At last, Alexa and King Damian are engaged to be married. But their lives are far from safe. The kingdom of Antion is under siege, and Rylan is a prisoner of the enemy. Even worse, Alexa remains at the mercy of the evil Dansiian Rafe, who controls her mind and can force Alexa to kill or harm Damian at any moment. Despite this, Alexa is determined to rescue Rylan, which soon leads her far from Damian and deep into enemy territory.

When she arrives, what awaits her is deadlier than anything she could have ever imagined: an army of black sorcerers, and a horrifying plot to destroy the world as Alexa knows it. Will she be able to gather the strength to free herself, protect the love of her life, and save the land? Will there ever be true peace?

Acclaimed author Sara B. Larson has woven a stunning, romantic, and evocative finale to the Defy trilogy, that is sure to leave readers breathless until the very last page.




Another series conclusion novel! I'm excited about this one :)

    I absolutely loved Defy but haven't read Ignite yet!! I'm trying to wait for the paperback to release but that is such a long time away so I'm pretty sure I'm going to cave at some point.... Awesome pick :)

    That cover is beautiful! I've not been a high fantasy reader usually, but I find that some of the YA stories might work for me. This is one of those series I find myself thinking of reading. Great pick!

    I'm not a huge fan of this series, but I've been hanging on. I had some issues with the first book. I liked the second one much better but still haven't given a rating of more than 3. I hope this one gives the series the bang I need. Nice choice! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Have a great week, Alyssa!
