"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:
Fireblood by Elly Blake
Book Two of the Frostblood Saga series
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: September 12, 2017
Summary (from Goodreads):
In this action-packed sequel to Frostblood, the future of Ruby's world and a court ruled by the love of her life depends on the uncovered secrets of her past..
Against all odds, Ruby has defeated the villainous Frost King and melted his throne of ice. But the bloodthirsty Minax that was trapped inside is now haunting her kingdom and everyone she loves. The answers to its demise may lie to the south in Sudesia, the land of the Firebloods, and a country that holds the secrets to Ruby's powers and past....
Despite warnings from her beloved Arcus, Ruby accompanies a roguish Fireblood named Kai to Sudesia, where she must master her control of fire in a series of trials to gain the trust of the suspicious Fireblood queen. Only then can she hope to access the knowledge that could defeat the rampaging Minax--which grows closer every moment. But as sparks fly in her moments alone with Kai, how can Ruby decide whom to trust? The fate of both kingdoms is now in her hands.
Yes, I am worried about That Sentence in the synopsis (and I'm not happy about that line). Yes, I am still looking forward to reading this book. Consider me your guinea pig! I did love Frostblood a lot. =)
Haha OMG I'm looking forward to this one as well! I can't wait! Great pick! I think we are both worried about the same part :) My WoW
ReplyDeleteYay! Hopefully that part isn't as bad as we think. D:
DeleteIt seems Frostblood just released. Maybe it's just me. I plan to read it soon so I can be ready for this sequel. Great pick, Alyssa!
ReplyDeleteIt did, less than two months ago! I like that the series is publishing so quickly. Thank you, Lekeisha! ^_^
DeleteI have yet to read Frostblood, but both books just sound AMAZING! I am also seriously obsessed with the dramatic beauty of the covers ;)
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy it :)
Here's my WoW

DeleteI adore the look of this but that synopsis is ........ worrying? I hope it isn't what it sounds like!!!!! I can't wait to read this one though and I'm really looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteIt is! I'm so nervous. Hopefully it's better than we think though!

Vi @ Gone With The Books
Perhaps when the series is complete, which should be by early 2018! Neat, right? You're welcome and thank YOU, Vi!
DeleteEeeep, I totally approve of this pick ;D You know I'm also dying for this book! I can't wait :D Hopefully we both love it!
ReplyDeleteBrittany @ Brittany's Book Rambles
Of course! I hope so, Brittany!
DeleteI need to read Frostblood asap!! This one does look interesting though. Is it just a duology or will there be more books?
ReplyDeleteTrilogy! I think book three publishes in January 2018, though that might change. But just three books!
DeleteI haven't read the first book in this series yet but I desperately want to and I'm already excited for book two - is that ridiculous? Haha :)
ReplyDeleteNaaaahhhh, you're probably the smart one for not starting the series yet! Less waiting and all that. :D
DeleteI haven't read the first book. This sounds really good. I hope you enjoy reading it, Alyssa.
ReplyDeleteMy WoW
Thanks, Sandra!

DeleteI'm excited for this one too and especially excited that we're getting the second book so soon after the first was released.
ReplyDeleteYES! I love the fast pace of publication, for this series. Such an incentive to actually finish the series!
DeleteThis was my pick last week. I cannot wait to read this one and that cover is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAlmost WoW twins! Hopefully the book does not disappoint. ^_^
DeleteI couldn't read the synopsis because I haven't read Frostblood yet, but now I'm so curious!! I'm thinking of starting Frostblood really soon. I hope I love it like you did! Here is my WoW! Great pick Alyssa! Have a great rest of your week. :D
ReplyDeleteYou should read them back-to-back! The third book publishes next year, so the publication times are pretty quick. Which is awesome. Have a lovely weekend, Genni!

ReplyDeleteThank you, Becky!
DeleteI haven't read Frostblood yet! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. :)
