"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
BY CASSANDRA CLARE
Goodreads Description:
In the epic follow-up to the New York Times bestseller Sword Catcher,
praised by George R. R. Martin as “everything I look for in fantasy,”
Lin and Kel must chart a perilous course between love and lies.
Kel
Saren, body double to Conor, crown prince of the dazzling city of
Castellane, is caught between two worlds. In order to protect his
beloved prince, Kel must find the culprits responsible for a massacre at
the royal palace—and the only clues are held by the Ragpicker King, the
notorious criminal who rules Castellane’s underworld. The trail Kel
follows leads back to the Hill, where among decadent nobles and
glittering parties a dark conspiracy to destroy the royal family has
taken hold—a conspiracy headed up by the monstrous Artal Gremont, the
man engaged to marry the woman Kel adores.
Meanwhile, Lin Caster
must face the aftermath of the greatest risk she’s ever taken. To save
the life of a dying friend, Lin has falsely claimed to be the Goddess
Reborn, the legendary heroine destined to save her people. Now the
terrifying—but strangely magnetic—leader of her people has arrived to
test her powers. The price of failure is exile, and only through her
alliance with the Ragpicker King can she continue to access the magic
that may save her.
Then Prince Conor reappears in her life,
demanding that she use her healing powers to cure the madness of his
father, the King. Lin soon realizes the King is gripped by an ancient
and terrible magic, one whose lure she cannot deny any more than she can
deny her growing passion for Conor.
As the simmering tensions
in Castellane reach a fever pitch, Lin and Kel must decide who to trust
when any false move means death—or worse.
