Waiting on Wednesday


Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Breaking the Spine to highlight upcoming releases we're anxiously awaiting! This week I am waiting on....


Touch of Power (Healer #1)
by Maria V. Snyder
 Blurb:
Laying hands upon the injured and dying, Avry of Kazan assumes their wounds and diseases into herself. But rather than being honored for her skills, she is hunted. Healers like Avry are accused of spreading the plague that has decimated the Territories, leaving the survivors in a state of chaos. 

Stressed and tired from hiding, Avry is abducted by a band of rogues who, shockingly, value her gift above the golden bounty offered for her capture. Their leader, an enigmatic captor-protector with powers of his own, is unequivocal in his demands: Avry must heal a plague-stricken prince—leader of a campaign against her people. As they traverse the daunting Nine Mountains, beset by mercenaries and magical dangers, Avry must decide who is worth healing and what is worth dying for. Because the price of peace may well be her life...
Expected publication: December 20th 2011 by Mira

This book is for mature teens and adults!
I really enjoyed this one! It's the first Snyder book I've read and I liked it a lot! I think it's time to pick up Poison Study! Have you read any Snyder book? Was it good?

What are you waiting on?

    I've read her sci-fi novels and enjoyed them. I've been meaning to dig into her other stuff for a while. I think I'll try to read Poison Study first, and if I like it, I'll try this one.

    Loved the teaser you posted yesterday, so I'm really looking forward to this one! I haven't read a Snyder book yet, but I've heard such good things about her writing. Can't wait to try her myself!

    And I'm planning on reading Touch of Power sometime this weekend or close to next week. The cover is so beautiful and irresistible.

    Have an amazing reading week!

    I really liked this one, too. Of course, I'm a big Maria V. fan and this one didn't disappoint. I like how her characters aren't all-powerful. Great choice.

    P.S. I love your holiday redesign--so cute. :)
