~Waiting on Wednesday~ The Speaker

                “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:

The Speaker (Sea of Ink & Gold #2) by Traci Chee
Out:  11/7

From Goodreads:
                Having barely escaped the clutches of the Guard, Sefia and Archer are back on the run, slipping into the safety of the forest to tend to their wounds and plan their next move.  Haunted by painful memories, Archer struggles to overcome the trauma of his past with the impressors, whose cruelty plagues him whenever he closes his eyes.  But when Sefia and Archer happen upon a crew of impressors in the wilderness, Archer finally finds a way to combat his nightmares:  by hunting impressors and freeing the boys they hold captive.

                With Sefia’s help, Archer travels across the kingdom of Deliene rescuing boys while she continues to investigate the mysterious Book and secrets it contains.  But the more battles they fight, the more fights Archer craves, until his thirst for violence threatens to transform him from the gentle boy Sefia knows to a grim warrior with a cruel destiny.  As Sefia begins to unravel the threads that connect Archer’s fate to her parents’ betrayal of the Guard so long ago, she and Archer must figure out a way to subvert the Guard’s plans before they are ensnared in a war that will pit kingdom against kingdom, leaving their future and the safety of the entire world hanging in the balance.

Why I’m Waiting:
                I really enjoyed The Reader and look forward to seeing what happens next with this world.  I hope my Archer doesn’t turn evil though. 


                What are you waiting on?  Tell me below what you think of this title and leave a link to your WoW as well so I can check it out.

  1. I'm a huge Archer fan and am looking forward to this one as well. I'm surprised The Reader didn't get more hype. Of course, if it did, there's a chance I wouldn't have read it so....... Great choice!

  2. I'm so excited for this book as well! I am so happy that Penguin didn't change the covers, like they have been doing with many of their YA series. I hope you enjoy this book when you get the chance to read it!

    Have a wonderful day, Eve. =)
