Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. It is a chance to share those new releases were are super anxious to get our hands on and read.
I loved Colleen's Tiger Saga so I am super excited that she has a new series out and while I really don't love the cover on this (it kind of gives me the creeps!), the synopsis sounds amazing!
Release Date: August 25, 2015 (Delacorte)
Book Description:
When seventeen-year-old Lilliana Young enters the Metropolitan Museum of Art one morning during spring break, the last thing she expects to find is a live Egyptian prince with godlike powers, who has been reawakened after a thousand years of mummification.
And she really can't imagine being chosen to aid him in an epic quest that will lead them across the globe to find his brothers and complete a grand ceremony that will save mankind.
But fate has taken hold of Lily, and she, along with her sun prince, Amon, must travel to the Valley of the Kings, raise his brothers, and stop an evil, shape-shifting god named Seth from taking over the world.
From New York Times bestselling author Colleen Houck comes an epic adventure about two star-crossed teens who must battle mythical forces and ancient curses on a journey with more twists and turns than the Nile itself.

Thanks Sandra, me too!
DeleteThis sounds wonderful Kindlemom, thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Debbie. :)
DeleteI am weary....only because I did NOT like the love triangle in the other series I read of hers. It ruined the whole series for me. I liked the writing, but the love triangle killed the love for the book. That cover is super fantastic though :)
ReplyDeleteAh yes, the love triangle. It was a tough one wasn't it? I did love her writing though. I'm hoping this will be sans love triangle.
DeleteCool cover and the synopsis had me at museum.
ReplyDeleteMe too Kim, well, and the mythology. ;)
DeleteWow, this does sound good! And I love the cover!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it too. :D
DeleteTHAT COVER LOOKS AWESOME. I am drooling for it already. Makes it better that you loved her previous series, too!

DeleteLOL I was so thinking the same thing before I read your note. That cover gave me a bit of the willies!
ReplyDeleteLOL I know right. Nice but creepy at the same time!
DeleteI agree with you, that cover is creepy.... I haven't tried anything by Colleen Houck yet tho so I'm looking forward to this :D
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, you should try her Eileen, I really think you would like her writing style.

DeleteOh yes I saw about this one, it's intriguing!

DeleteI am curious about this one. I kept meaning to read her tiger series but it never happened. IF this gets good reviews I might check it out, if I recall she is a Oregon author.

DeleteReawakened sounds so cool! With the exception of Rick Riordan's Kane Chronicles series, I haven't read any books involving Egyptian mythology. I definitely want to give this one a try :)
