"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted
over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly
anticipating.
This week, what's really got my pages in a twist is...

Genres:
YA, Sci-Fi
Seventeen-year-old Ana is a
scoundrel by nurture and an outlaw by nature. Found as a child drifting through
space with a sentient android called D09, Ana was saved by a fearsome space
captain and the grizzled crew she now calls family. But D09—one of the last
remaining illegal Metals—has been glitching, and Ana will stop at nothing to
find a way to fix him.
Ana’s desperate effort to save D09
leads her on a quest to steal the coordinates to a lost ship that could offer
all the answers. But at the last moment, a spoiled Ironblood boy beats Ana to
her prize. He has his own reasons for taking the coordinates, and he doesn’t
care what he’ll sacrifice to keep them.
When everything goes wrong, she and
the Ironblood end up as fugitives on the run. Now their entire kingdom is after
them—and the coordinates—and not everyone wants them captured alive.
What they find in a lost corner of
the universe will change all their lives—and unearth dangerous secrets. But
when a darkness from Ana’s past returns, she must face an impossible choice:
does she protect a kingdom that wants her dead or save the Metal boy she loves?
My Thoughts
I’ve been hearing some buzz about this one. Apparently, it’s
Anastasia in space…? I’m not a huge
fan of Anastasia, but I love space
opera stories. I haven’t read a lot of them, but I’ve enjoyed the ones I have
picked up. Let’s hope this one’s just as good if not better!
What book are you
waiting for this Wednesday?
Ooh nice! I'm keeping an eye on this one! Sounds like it might be my kind of read!!
