Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
My pick this week is:
Title: Talon
Series: Talon #1
Author: Julie Kagawa
Pages: 400
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Expected Publication Date: October 28th 2014
Long ago, dragons were hunted to near extinction by the Order of St. George, a legendary society of dragon slayers. Hiding in human form and growing their numbers in secret, the dragons of Talon have become strong and cunning, and they're positioned to take over the world with humans none the wiser.
Ember and Dante Hill are the only sister and brother known to dragonkind. Trained to infiltrate society, Ember wants to live the teen experience and enjoy a summer of freedom before taking her destined place in Talon. But destiny is a matter of perspective, and a rogue dragon will soon challenge everything Ember has been taught. As Ember struggles to accept her future, she and her brother are hunted by the Order of St. George.
Soldier Garret Xavier Sebastian has a mission to seek and destroy all dragons, and Talon's newest recruits in particular. But he cannot kill unless he is certain he has found his prey: and nothing is certain about Ember Hill. Faced with Ember's bravery, confidence and all-too-human desires, Garret begins to question everything that the Order has ingrained in him: and what he might be willing to give up to find the truth about dragons.

I love anything that Julie Kagawa writes and since this is a new series this means I'm getting at least three more books by her so yay!

I know a lot of people are waiting for this one. I really liked Julie's The Iron Fey series so I guess I'm one of them.
Happy Wednesday!
My WoW @ Marilyn's Mystery Blog
I think it's because she is amazing and can manage to write very diverse books.
This was one of the first WoW selections I saw when I started blogging. It certainly does look awesome! I really hope you love this book when you get a chance to read it! Thanks for sharing :)
Here's my WoW!
I'm excited for this one! Julie Kagawa is pretty creative and I'm looking forward to starting a new series from her. :)
I know, she is on my top ten author list.
And it's about Dragons, it will be amazing.
Thanks, I already pre-ordered it on Amazon!
