"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Goodreads Description:
In this riveting dark fantasy debut, a woman
with missing memories fights to survive a war-torn world of necromancy
and alchemy—and the man tasked with unearthing the deepest secrets of
her past.
“What is it you think you’re protecting in that brain
of yours? The war is over. Holdfast is dead. The Eternal Flame
extinguished. There’s no one left for you to save.”
Once a
promising alchemist, Helena Marino is now a prisoner—of war and of her
own mind. Her Resistance friends and allies have been brutally murdered,
her abilities suppressed, and the world she knew destroyed.
In
the aftermath of a long war, Paladia’s new ruling class of corrupt guild
families and depraved necromancers, whose vile undead creatures helped
bring about their victory, holds Helena captive.
According to
Resistance records, she was a healer of little importance within their
ranks. But Helena has inexplicable memory loss of the months leading up
to her capture, making her enemies wonder: Is she truly as insignificant
as she appears, or are her lost memories hiding some vital piece of the
Resistance’s final gambit?
To uncover the memories buried deep
within her mind, Helena is sent to the High Reeve, one of the most
powerful and ruthless necromancers in this new world. Trapped on his
crumbling estate, Helena’s fight—to protect her lost history and to
preserve the last remaining shreds of her former self—is just beginning.
For her prison and captor have secrets of their own . . . secrets
Helena must unearth, whatever the cost.

This book came out yesterday, but I had forgotten to add it to my goodreads. Oops. So sharing about it now :) As I'm getting a Waterstones exclusive of this book. And now I'm kind of regretting it? As I just learned a couple of days ago that it is over 1000 pages long. Whaaaat. I do not have the space. Sobs. So. Yeah. I'm hoping this book will be worth it :) Have seen many love it. And I am curious about it, haha.
What are you waiting for on this dark Wednesday?
