“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:
Wonder Woman: Warbringer (DC Icons #1) by Leigh Bardugo
Out: 8/29
From Goodreads:
She
will become one of the world’s greatest heroes:
WONDER WOMAN. But first she is
Diana, Princess of the Amazons. And her
fight is just beginning…
Diana
longs to prove herself to her legendary warrior sisters. But when the opportunity finally comes, she
throws away her chance at glory and breaks Amazon law—risking exile—to save a
mere mortal. Even worse, Alia Keralis is
no ordinary girl and with this single brave act, Diana may have doomed the
world.
Alia
just wanted to escape her overprotective brother with a semester at sea. She doesn’t know she is being hunted. When a bomb detonates aboard her ship, Alia
is rescued by a mysterious girl of extraordinary strength and forced to
confront a horrible truth: Alia is a
Warbringer—a direct descendant of the infamous Helen of Troy, fated to bring
about an age of bloodshed and misery.
Together,
Diana and Alia will face an army of enemies—mortal and divine—determined to
either destroy or possess the Warbringer.
If they have any hope of saving both their worlds, they will have to
stand side by side against the tide of war.
