~Waiting on Wednesday~ The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air #1)

                “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 CruelPrince (The Folk of the Air #1) by Holly Black
Out:  1/2             

From Goodreads:
                Of course I want to be like them.  They’re beautiful as blades forged in some divine fire.  They will live forever.

                And Cardan is even more beautiful than the rest.  I hate him more than all the others.  I hate him so much that sometimes when I look at him, I can hardly breathe.

                Jude was seven years old when her parents were murdered and she and her two sisters were stolen away to live in the treacherous High Court of Faerie.  Ten years late, Jude wants nothing more than to belong there, despite her mortality.  But many of the fey despise humans.  Especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King.

                To win a place at the Court, she must defy him-and face the consequences.

                In doing so, she becomes embroiled in palace intrigues and deceptions, discovering her own capacity for bloodshed.  But as civil war threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, Jude will need to risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters, and Faerie itself.

Why I’m Waiting:
                I have several more Holly Black books yet to read but the ones I have read I have really enjoyed.  She seems to have a way with Faerie and I look forward to this one! 


                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.
