Waiting on Wednesday (15) - Discount Armageddon


Waiting on Wednesday is a feature hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine that shares the upcoming releases we bloggers are on the edge of our seats about!

Discount Armageddon
(Incryptid #1)
Seanan McGuire
Release date: March 6, 2012

Ghoulies. Ghosties. Long-legged beasties. Things that go bump in the night...

The Price family has spent generations studying the monsters of the world, working to protect them from humanity-and humanity from them. Enter Verity Price. Despite being trained from birth as a cryptozoologist, she'd rather dance a tango than tangle with a demon, and is spending a year in Manhattan while she pursues her career in professional ballroom dance. Sounds pretty simple, right?

It would be, if it weren't for the talking mice, the telepathic mathematicians, the asbestos supermodels, and the trained monster-hunter sent by the Price family's old enemies, the Covenant of St. George. When a Price girl meets a Covenant boy, high stakes, high heels, and a lot of collateral damage are almost guaranteed. To complicate matters further, local cryptids are disappearing, strange lizard-men are appearing in the sewers, and someone's spreading rumors about a dragon sleeping underneath the city...


Umm..........what? I don't know what the hell this book is even about, I just know I want to read it!!! Admittedly, part of that desire is due to the ridiculously intriguing cover, but the crazy synopsis helps too!

What is YOUR WoW pick?

  6. I love her October Daye series... I wonder how this will compare? But I agree... that is one odd blurb. Really odd! I haven't even heard about this, so thanks for bringing it to my attention! I've already told some friends about it, too.
