Waiting on Wednesday: Red Sister by Mark Lawrence


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights exciting upcoming releases that we can't wait to be released!

This week's upcoming book spotlight is:

Red Sister by Mark Lawrence
Publication Date: April 4th, 2017
Ace
Amazon |  Barnes & Noble | Book Depository


From Goodreads:


I was born for killing – the gods made me to ruin.

At the Convent of Sweet Mercy young girls are raised to be killers. In a few the old bloods show, gifting talents rarely seen since the tribes beached their ships on Abeth. Sweet Mercy hones its novices’ skills to deadly effect: it takes ten years to educate a Red Sister in the ways of blade and fist.


But even the mistresses of sword and shadow don’t truly understand what they have purchased when Nona Grey is brought to their halls as a bloodstained child of eight, falsely accused of murder: guilty of worse.


Stolen from the shadow of the noose, Nona is sought by powerful enemies, and for good reason. Despite the security and isolation of the convent her secret and violent past will find her out. Beneath a dying sun that shines upon a crumbling empire, Nona Grey must come to terms with her demons and learn to become a deadly assassin if she is to survive…





This one doesn't come until April and it doesn't even have a cover yet, but I am so excited for it! This book has long been in the making (or it seems that way, anyway) and I can't wait to finally dive in.

What do you think about this upcoming release? What are your anticipated upcoming releases?
