Waiting on Wednesday (138) – Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Waiting on Wednesday is a topic brought to life by Jill over at Breaking the Spine. With Waiting On Wednesday you get to introduce to everyone upcoming books you’re excited about!

 

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo coming June 19, 2012 from Holt Children’s

 

Inspired by Tsarist Russia, SHADOW & BONE brings to life a fantasy world of superstition and science, saints and samovars, in which a lonely refugee must leave behind her best friend- and first love- to save her country from the growing darkness of the Unsea. But first she must contend with the dangerous and decadent world of the kingdom’s magical elite and their powerful leader, a creature of dark charm and deadly ambition.

MORE fantasy! This one sounds brilliant. I can’t wait to read. I love the sound of it and I love the whole idea that it is inspired by Tsarist Russia!

What are you guys waiting on?

  10. I just love the premise for Shadow & Bone. It seems so different from a lot of other YA books! I can’t wait to see what the final cover version will look like.
