"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, created by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week I'm waiting on:
Imagine a time when
the gods turn a blind eye to the agony of men, when the last of the
hellions roam the plains and evil stirs beyond the edges of the map. A
time when cities burn, and in their ashes, empires rise.
Alexander,
Macedonia’s sixteen-year-old heir, is on the brink of discovering his
fated role in conquering the known world but finds himself drawn to
newcomer Katerina, who must navigate the dark secrets of court life
while hiding her own mission: kill the Queen. But Kat’s first love,
Jacob, will go to unthinkable lengths to win her, even if it means
competing for her heart with Hephaestion, a murderer sheltered by the
prince. And far across the sea, Zofia, a Persian princess and
Alexander’s unmet fiancée, wants to alter her destiny by seeking the
famed and deadly Spirit Eaters.
Weaving fantasy with the
salacious and fascinating details of real history, New York Times
bestselling author Eleanor Herman reimagines the greatest emperor the
world has ever known: Alexander the Great, in the first book of the
Blood of Gods and Royals series.
