Waiting on Wednesday


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly blog post by Jill over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights releases we're eagerly awaiting.

This week my pick is Jenna Black's Shadowspell! I loved Glimmerglass and cannot wait to read the sequel. Things were getting pretty interesting for Dana last I saw her!


On top of spending most of her time in a bunkerlike safe house and having her dates hijacked by a formidable Fae bodyguard, Faeriewalker Dana Hathaway is in for some more bad news: the Erlking and his pack of murderous minions known as the Wild Hunt have descended upon Avalon. With his homicidal appetite and immortal powers, the Erlking has long been the nightmare of the Fae realm. A fragile treaty with the Faerie Queen, sealed with a mysterious spell, is the one thing that keeps him from hunting unchecked in Avalon, the only place on Earth where humans and Fae live together. Which means Dana’s in trouble, since it’s common knowledge that the Faerie Queen wants her – and her rare Faeriewalker powers – dead. The smoldering, sexy Erlking’s got his sights set on Dana, but does he only seek to kill her, or does he have something much darker in mind?

TITLE: Shadowspell
AUTHOR:
Jenna Black
GENRE:
Young Adult (Urban) Fantasy*
RELEASE DATE:
January 4, 2011

*Wasn't sure how to classify this one into a genre, the Fae are involved but the setting is still somewhat modern even if it's not our world. So went with a sort of YA UF.
