Waiting on Wednesday (#53)

"Waiting on" Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases.

Expected publication: March 25th 2015 by Penguin UK

After finally meeting his elusive father, Marcus, and receiving the three gifts that confirm him as a full adult witch, Nathan is still on the run. He needs to find his friend Gabriel and rescue Annalise, now a prisoner of the powerful Black witch Mercury. Most of all he needs to learn how to control his Gift – a strange, wild new power that threatens to overwhelm him.Meanwhile, Soul O’Brien has seized control of the Council of White Witches and is expanding his war against Black witches into Europe. In response, an unprecedented alliance has formed between Black and White witches determined to resist him. Drawn into the rebellion by the enigmatic Black witch Van Dal, Nathan finds himself fighting alongside both old friends and old enemies. But can all the rebels be trusted, or is Nathan walking into a trap?

There was no doubt what I was going to pick this week after seeing the cover reveal. I know a lot of people didn't really love Half Bad, but I did, it just really worked for me, so of course I can't wait to continue the series!

What are you waiting on?

I didn't really like the first book enough to think about going on with the series, but I am interested to see what you think when you get to read it!

Is that the US cover? (The one I've seen is lighter but I think I like this one more.) I have yet to read HALF BAD but I really want to, because THAT COVER!

I LOVE the cover. This is totally example of a cover selling the book... haha. I need to read Half Bad. I like gritty boy POV's (recently finished Holly Black's Curseworkers series).

I haven't read Half-Bad yet, even though it's been on my TBR list for ages. The sequel looks just as good!

I haven’t read the first book yet but I will someday. I have to read this series and see what it’s like. It seems to be the kind of books that you either love or hate.

I haven't read Half Bad but this one looks great! I didn't read the blurb because I'm afraid it might spoil the 1st book for me. haha Anyway, I hope you enjoy it when it comes out! :)

I haven't read Half Bad yet. I did pick it up and read the first 20 pages or so, but it just wasn't doing it for me at the time, so I set it aside. I do want to pick it back up sometime, though. So many of my friends really enjoyed it. I hope you love the sequel just as much as the first book. Great pick!

I really like that this is a male protagonist for a paranormal fantasy story. I have not yet read the first in the series, but this makes me want to pick it up! Happy reading!

Oooooooooooooo I hadn't seen the cover yet! Neat! The first book was so good but so sad! I really hope things start to work out better for Nathan but I'm sure there are more hard times to come. Thanks for stopping by!

That is a pretty cool cover. I remember people dumping on the cover for the first book, so hopefully they'll be happier with this one. :D

Oh, I've seen a lot of this one today! I haven't read Half Bad, and I'm just not sure it's for me, but seeing this one around so much is really making me reconsider my decision regarding it. LOL Great pick! :)
