Welcome to my WOW, or HOW as I like to call it where I feature an upcoming release that I'm hyperventilating for! It's totally fun to geek out about upcoming releases! This event is hosted by the lovely Jill @ Breaking The Spine. Today's awesome-sauce pick is....
Steelheart
by Brandon Sanderson
TBPublished: 10.14.13
Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics.
But Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man you must crush his wills.
Nobody fights the Epics... nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them.
And David wants in. He wants Steelheart—the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father. For years, like the Reckoners, David's been studying, and planning—and he has something they need. Not an object, but an experience.
He's seen Steelheart bleed. And he wants revenge.
Why I'm Waiting:
It's been forever since my last WOW, so I knew I needed to pick something ridiculously epic. Hence, STEELHEART. If there is one thing you should know about me? I HEART BRANDON'S BOOKS. They are amazing-sauce. He's a master. His books are the best for a geeky fantasty nerd like myself. And this one looks UHMAZING! Not to mention it's specifically written for YA! Woot! All the more awesome I say! I honestly, can't fangirl anymore than I am over this book!!!! *squeeal*
What are you waiting on this week?
