Losses mount and deadly new threats converge in this fourth action-packed tale of the Arcana Chronicles by #1 New York Times bestseller Kresley Cole.
When the battle is done . . .
The Emperor unleashed hell and annihilated an army, jeopardizing the future of mankind--but Circe struck back. The epic clash between them devastates the Arcana world and nearly kills Evie, separating her from her allies.
And all hope is lost . . .
With Aric missing and no sign that Jack and Selena escaped Richter's reach, Evie turns more and more to the darkness lurking inside her. Two Arcana emerge as game changers: one who could be her salvation, the other her worst nightmare.
Vengeance becomes everything.
To take on Richter, Evie must reunite with Death and mend their broken bond. But as she learns more about her role in the future--and her chilling past--will she become a monster like the Emperor? Or can Evie and her allies rise up from Richter's ashes, stronger than ever before?
CANNOT WAIT TO READ THIS ONE!!! I adore this series and am sooo happy we're getting book 4 this year...though so far I am in a PANIC! Because Goodreads and everyone basically only lists a Kindle edition. I did notice there's a new publisher for the book so that's likely a cause, but there HAS to be a REAL book addition!! I can't collect the rest if there's not a real book!!!

Enter a world of elemental magic, forbidden romance, and betrayal in this prequel to New York Times bestselling author Danielle Paige's upcoming Stealing Snow.
Young Nepenthe is half-princess, half-mermaid. Though she longs for the sea, her father wants her to stay on land. But only love can make a mermaid give up the water, and Nepenthe doesn't love anyone the way her mother loves her human father. She wants to live as a mermaid and become the River Witch, like her mother.
Then Nepenthe meets Prince Lazar, the son of the all-powerful Snow King of Algid, and she can't help but fall for him. After a horrible tragedy strikes, Nepenthe joins forces with a young fire witch named Ora to save Lazar and protect the kingdom. But it soon becomes clear that Ora loves Lazar just as much as Nepenthe does... And now Nepenthe must decide: inherit the power of the River Witch, or betray her friend to be with the boy she loves.
And Nepenthe's role in the prophecy is only just beginning. . . In the future, she is destined to cross paths with a girl named Snow, who will have the power to change Algid forever-for better, or for worse.
Oh yay for prequel novellas!! And isn't this cover gorgeous as well?! It's simple, but so lovely!!

Enter a world of elemental magic, forbidden romance, and betrayal in this prequel to New York Times bestselling author Danielle Paige's upcoming Stealing Snow.
Margot grew up as an apprentice to the witches Nepenthe and Ora, but she doesn't possess the incredible magic that they have. So when the old Snow King asked her to kidnap Ora, she obeyed his command, hiding her true motives from the witches. Though the witches could kill Margot for her betrayal, they showed her mercy--and without her old friends at her side, she must find her own way.
Leaving the world she knows behind, Margot decides to put her affinity for thieving to use by embracing the Robber trade. But she is set for a much greater fate. . . and more of the prophecy foretelling Algid's future will be revealed. Along the way, Margot must find her way from being a magic-less apprentice to be becoming a queen in her own right.
And Margot's role in the prophecy is only just beginning. . . In the future, she is destined to cross paths with a girl named Snow, who will have the power to change Algid forever-for better, or for worse.
This is another of the prequel novellas coming out this summer before Stealing Snow!! This cover kind of reminds me of the Red Queen ones, and I think The Queen of the Tearling in some edition was crown like too!
Queen Rising releases August 30, 2016
This digital original novella is the seventh installment in the series’ prequel arc, and reveals how some members of the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked came to be.
Dorothy Gale’s armies killed Lanadel’s entire family, and she’s determined to seek revenge. She sets off to find the elusive, secretive group known as the Revolutionary Order of the Wicked. They’re rumored to be training their own army to defeat Dorothy. But when she finds them, Lanadel soon learns that she’s seriously underprepared both in fighting skills, as well as magical abilities, and she has to prove herself in order to join the Order and become one of them.
This is for the Dorothy Must Die series prequel novellas! I really like this one!! Kind of reminds me of The Girl with All the Gifts because of the yellow, but I still like it!
Order of the Wicked releases June 28, 2016
What if Belle's mother cursed the Beast? As Old as Time is the third book in a new YA line that reimagines classic Disney stories in surprising new ways. When Belle touches the Beast's enchanted rose, memories flood through Belle's mind-memories of a mother she thought she would never see again. And, stranger still, she sees that her mother is none other than the beautiful enchantress who cursed the castle and all its inhabitants. Shocked and confused, Belle and the Beast will have to unravel a dark mystery about their families that is 21 years in the making.
Okay, the cover isn't so hot. And I know I struggled to read the first two books in this retelling series. The Aladdin one just wasn't what I expected and the Sleeping Beauty one had me DNF around 100 pages. But I LOVE Beauty and the Beast! Though I wonder if my expectations will be too high? I might have to give this one a try...maybe...possibly!
As Old as Time releases September 6, 2016

Okay so a description is forthcoming I guess, since the Goodreads page description is saying it will release in 2017 but it actually releases this year! The cover is sooo pretty! I have an ARC of this one I might read at some point! Sadly, it lacks this gorgeous cover!
The Thousandth Floor releases August 30, 2016
And those are the ones I had been wanting to share! Plus the one I found recently!
Finally a cover for The Thousandth Floor! I was just looking at the book in Edelweiss and the description in there is more detailed - and VERY confusing actually. It actually says it's already picked up for a tv show, too - wow!
ReplyDeleteAnd I wonder if I have to read these "Snow" books before the main book?? Hmmmm.....
Thanks for sharing these!!!!
I have heard about Kresley Cole but haven't read anything yet. This one looks good :-)
