“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at
Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.
This week I'm picking:
Unbreakable
(Legion #1) by
Kami Garcia
Expected Publication Date: October 1, 2013
by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
From Goodreads:
I never believed in ghosts. Until one tried to kill me.
When
Kennedy Waters finds her mother dead, her world begins to unravel. She
doesn’t know that paranormal forces in a much darker world are the ones
pulling the strings. Not until identical twins Jared and Lukas Lockhart
break into Kennedy’s room and destroy a dangerous spirit sent to kill
her. The brothers reveal that her mother was part of an ancient secret
society responsible for protecting the world from a vengeful demon — a
society whose five members were all murdered on the same night.
Now
Kennedy has to take her mother’s place in the Legion if she wants to
uncover the truth and stay alive. Along with new Legion members Priest
and Alara, the teens race to find the only weapon that might be able to
destroy the demon — battling the deadly spirits he controls every step
of the way.
Suspense, romance, and the paranormal meet in this
chilling urban fantasy, the first book in a new series from Kami Garcia,
bestselling coauthor of the Beautiful Creatures novels.
Why I'm Waiting on It:
While I didn't love the Caster Chronicles books, I did enjoy them. I'm looking forward to seeing what each author has to say on their own. Plus, ghosts & deamons. In October. Awesome spooky Halloween fun.
