Waiting on Wednesday #201

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

DRIFT & DAGGER BY KENDALL KULPER

Goodreads Description:

In Mal's world, magic is everything. But Mal is a "blank," the anti-magic. Blanks can't be hexed or cursed or saved or killed by magic. And everyone is afraid of them--even Mal himself.

So Mal hides what he is--except from Essie Roe, a witch and his best friend. On the day Essie reveals his secret and casts him out from the only home he's ever known, Mal experiences the true shock of betrayal.

Now Mal travels the world in search of rare, illegal magical relics. When his partner in crime, Boone, hears rumors of a legendary dagger that can steal a witch's power, Mal knows he's finally found his means of revenge. But as the chase for the fabled knife takes them from Boston to Paris to Constantinople, Mal realizes there are secrets afoot that he's only beginning to understand--and all the while the blank monster inside him threatens to escape.


Hardcover, 368 pages
Expected publication: September 8th 2015 by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers

I do love the name Mal. <3 Sigh. I adored the first book by this author; Salt & Storm :D And I cannot wait to read this one too. The cover is pretty awesome. And the summary is amazing. I think I will love this one. Crossing all my fingers. <3 Hoping for a good romance too, hih :) And hoping that it has a much much much happier ending than her first book, ack. Very excited to read this one :) I will love it.
What are you waiting for on this travelling Wednesday?
