Waiting on Wednesday (57)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. We hadn't done Waiting on Wednesday since early last year, but we recently decided it's about time to bring it back.  So here's this week's WOW pick:


The Iron Druid Chronicles is one of my all-time favorite urban fantasy series! I have been waiting for this book for what seems like forever when in all actuality it has only been a year and a half. I'm so ready for some more adventures with Atticus and the gang. I'm nervous though. The stuff that happened with Loki in the last book can lead to nothing good. I'm kind of terrified about what will happen especially with him and with Leif in this book. Atticus's confrontation with Leif has been coming for a few books now and I'm still not ready for it.

Ah! I need this book in my life! I need to know what happens next!

(The Iron Druid Chronicles #8)
Kevin Hearne
Release: January 26, 2016
Links: Goodreads Amazon
Iron Druid Atticus O’Sullivan, hero of Kevin Hearne’s epic New York Times bestselling urban fantasy series, has a point to make—and then drive into a vampire’s heart.
 
When a Druid has lived for two thousand years like Atticus, he’s bound to run afoul of a few vampires. Make that legions of them. Even his former friend and legal counsel turned out to be a bloodsucking backstabber. Now the toothy troublemakers—led by power-mad pain-in-the-neck Theophilus—have become a huge problem requiring a solution. It’s time to make a stand.

As always, Atticus wouldn’t mind a little backup. But his allies have problems of their own. Ornery archdruid Owen Kennedy is having a wee bit of troll trouble: Turns out when you stiff a troll, it’s not water under the bridge. Meanwhile, Granuaile is desperate to free herself of the Norse god Loki’s mark and elude his powers of divination—a quest that will bring her face-to-face with several Slavic nightmares.

As Atticus globetrots to stop his nemesis Theophilus, the journey leads to Rome. What better place to end an immortal than the Eternal City? But poetic justice won’t come without a price: In order to defeat Theophilus, Atticus may have to lose an old friend.
What book are you waiting on?
