~Waiting on Wednesday~ A Torch Against the Night (An Ember in the Ashes #2)

                “Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.  Basically books that are not yet out that we are dying to get our hands on.  This week’s pick is:

A Torch Against the Night (An Ember in the Ashes #2) by Sabaa Tahir

Out:  8/30

From Goodreads:

                A Torch Against the Night takes readers into the heart of the Empire as Laia and Elias fight their way north to liberate Laia’s brother from the horrors of Kauf Prison.  Hunted by Empire soldiers, manipulated by the Commandant, and haunted by their pasts, Laia and Elias must outfox their enemies and confront the treacherousness of their own hearts.

                In the city of Serra, Helene Aquilla finds herself bound to the will of the Empire’s twisted new leader, Marcus.  When her loyalty is questioned, Helene finds herself taking on a mission to prove herself—a mission that might destroy her, instead.

               

Why I’m Waiting:

                Because An Ember in the Ashes (review) was AMAZING and I have been dying to know what happens after that ending since finishing it!!! I want to see what blooms between Laia and Elias as they spend more time together and how they go about saving her brother when it seems the world is against them.  Also the new leader….NOOOOO!!!  Plus I rather liked Helene in the first book and it looks like she is going to get her own story line possibly POV in this which would be interesting.
