Waiting on Wednesday

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. After completing your post return to Breaking the Spine and add a comment with a link to their post. This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

The Demon King
by Cinda Williams Chima
Release Date: October 13, 2009

Synopsis: Times are hard in the mountain city of Fellsmarch. Reformed thief Han Alister will do almost anything to eke out a living for himself, his mother, and his sister Mari. Meanwhile, Raisa ana'Helena, Princess Heir of the Fells, has her own battles to fight. Raisa wants to be more than an ornament in a glittering cage. She aspires to be like Hanalea-the legendary warrior queen who killed the Demon King and saved the world. But it seems like her mother has other plans for her--plans that include a suitor who goes against everything the Queendom stands for.

Why I’m waiting: There are a few reasons why I am waiting for this one. First, the cover looks amazing; I love the necklace in the foreground and the landscape in the background. Second, the synopsis sounds just like something I would enjoy. Adventure, romance and magic, what more could you want? Third, I LOVED Chima’s Heir Trilogy and know that if its anything like that then Demon King will be amazing!
