is a weekly event that was originally hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This meme is a place that spotlights upcoming releases that we´re eagerly anticipating with pure joy.
There are a lot of new books coming out each year and some of them catch my attention and will get a spotlight in my Waiting on Wednesday post. While some of them will finally end up here at my place, others won´t. I am joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can´t-Wait Wednesday.
We will finally get the German edition of Dance of Thieves by Mary E. Pearson. A few months ago, I received an email for a cover voting and am happy that the publisher chose the cover I voted for. The motive is very different from the original cover, yes, and some will probably wonder (again) about the cover choices some German publishers are making, but I say that it looks better than the other covers they presented us in the email. The reason why I am looking forward to this book? I LOVED her books from The Remnant Chronicles. At least the first two I have read so far. But if Dance of Thieves is only half as good as the other books were, then I will have again some reading pleasure lying ahead of me.

When the patriarch of the Ballenger empire dies, his son, Jase, becomes its new leader. Even nearby kingdoms bow to the strength of this outlaw family, who have always governed by their own rules. But a new era looms on the horizon, set in motion by a young queen, which makes her the target of the dynasty´s resentment and anger. At the same time, Kazi, a legendary former street thief, is sent by the queen to investigate transgressions against the new settlements. When Kazi arrives in the forbidding land of the Ballengers, she learns that there is more to Jase than she thought. As unexpected events spiral out of their control, bringing them intimately together, they continue to play a cat and mouse game of false moves and motives in order to fulfill their own secret missions.
This sounds good. I like the cat and mouse games in books and want to know their secret agendas. Great pick!
