Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. If you’re continuing with WOW, feel free to link those up as well! Find out more here.
My pick this week is:
A Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir
Expected Publication Date: June 12, 2018 by Razorbill
464 pages
Ember Quartet book 3/4
Blurb from Goodreads:
Beyond the Empire and within it, the threat of war looms ever larger.
The Blood Shrike, Helene Aquilla, is assailed on all sides. Emperor Marcus, haunted by his past, grows increasingly unstable, while the Commandant capitalizes on his madness to bolster her own power. As Helene searches for a way to hold back the approaching darkness, her sister’s life and the lives of all those in the Empire hang in the balance.
Far to the east, Laia of Serra knows the fate of the world lies not in the machinations of the Martial court, but in stopping the Nightbringer. But while hunting for a way to bring him down, Laia faces unexpected threats from those she hoped would aid her, and is drawn into a battle she never thought she’d have to fight.
And in the land between the living and the dead, Elias Veturius has given up his freedom to serve as Soul Catcher. But in doing so, he has vowed himself to an ancient power that will stop at nothing to ensure Elias’s devotion–even at the cost of his humanity.
I am so excited for this! I am not excited about the cover but oh well. I can’t wait to see what happens next with my beloved characters!
What are you waiting on?? Lets talk!
I read an Ember in the Ashes and loooved it! I have yet to continue on with the series but i’m excited for this one to come out and then I can binge read the sequel and then a Reaper At the Gates !!

That’s a great plan! Sometimes, I think I’ll do that with series and wait until they are all out. I never make it. haha.

The new covers are cool! The only thing that bugs me is that it will not match the previous two books at all! So, I’m still on the fence about pre-ordering it. I know, it’s werid. lol

I kinda like the cover, the woman with the face paint (I think it’s face paint??) looks pretty fierce! Although it reminds me of a different series- maybe some of Brent Weeks’ covers? Maybe it’s the same designer. anyway… awesome choice, this looks good!!!!
