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.
Sarah Fine has some of the most imaginative and fun reads out there. So unique and different and sometimes raw and gritty too. I loved the first book in this series so I'm excited that the second books release is right around the corner. The Impostor Queen lived up to all my expectations for it and I'm hoping this second installment will as well.
Book Description:
Ansa has always been a fighter.
As a child, she fought the invaders who murdered her parents and snatched her as a raid prize. She fought for her place next to Thyra, the daughter of the Krigere Chieftain. She fought for her status as a warrior in her tribe: blood and victory are her way of life. But the day her Krigere cross the great lake and threaten the witch queen of the Kupari, everything changes.
Cursed by the queen with fire and ice, Ansa is forced to fight against an invisible enemy—the dark magic that has embedded itself deep in her bones. The more she seeks to hide it, the more dangerous it becomes. And with the Krigere numbers decimated and the tribe under threat from the traitorous brother of the dead Chieftain, Ansa is torn between her loyalty to the Krigere, her love for Thyra, and her own survival instincts.
With her world in chaos and each side wanting to claim her for their own, only one thing is certain: unless Ansa can control the terrible magic inside her, everything she’s fought for will be destroyed.

ReplyDeleteI hope you give her work a chance!
DeleteI struck out with her adult book but I do want to give her YA series a try.
ReplyDeleteI've had better luck with her YA stuff as well.
