This week I’m eagerly waiting on:

The Priory of the Orange Tree

The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon

Expected publication: 26 February 2019

Publisher: Bloomsbury

From Goodreads:

A world divided.
A queendom without an heir.
An ancient enemy awakens.

The House of Berethnet has ruled Inys for a thousand years. Still unwed, Queen Sabran the Ninth must conceive a daughter to protect her realm from destruction—but assassins are getting closer to her door.

Ead Duryan is an outsider at court. Though she has risen to the position of lady-in-waiting, she is loyal to a hidden society of mages. Ead keeps a watchful eye on Sabran, secretly protecting her with forbidden magic.

Across the dark sea, Tané has trained all her life to be a dragonrider, but is forced to make a choice that could see her life unravel.

Meanwhile, the divided East and West refuse to parley, and forces of chaos are rising from their sleep.

Why I’m eagerly awaiting…

My local bookseller literally hunted me down, pounced on me, and said “You NEED to read this!”

Then she gave it to me.

It’s so big, I’m so scared I’m not going to like it.
