Waiting on Wednesday (4) ~ Ruin and Rising


"Waiting On" Wednesday is an awesome meme created by Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's "Can't Wait For" unreleased book is Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo which comes out June 17th, 2014! 

I am SO excited for the final book in the Grisha series! I seriously have no idea what's going to happen... Will the Darkling redeem himself? Will Alina get her powers back? Will Nikolai reappear?? Who's Alina going to end up with?? 

"The capital has fallen. The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne.

Now the nation's fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army.

 Deep in an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives.

Alina will have to forge new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the last of Morozova's amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling's secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is the one thing that stands between Ravka and destruction—and claiming it could cost Alina the very future she’s fighting for."

What books are you waiting for?

    I still have yet to read Siege and Storm, but I'm really excited for this! I LOVED the first book in the series, and I can't wait to finish it. :)

      Anytime! The book you chose looks great too! I love Neil Patrick Harris. Sorry I can't comment though because I don't have a wordpress account.

    I've been reading Shadow and Bone, and it's great so far! I'm hoping to read and finish both that and the sequel before Ruin and Rising comes out. I'm excited to see what's going to happen next :)

    I haven't read Siege & Storm yet, and I think I might reread Shadow & Bone and read them all back-to-back as soon as I can get my hands on the third volume. The cover for this one is absolutely gorgeous.
