Blog Tour Review - To Cage A God by Elizabeth May

 Blog Tour Review - To Cage A God by Elizabeth May To cage a god is divine. To be divine is to rule. To rule is to destroy. Using ancient secrets, Galina and Sera’s mother grafted gods into their bones. Bound to brutal deities and granted forbidden power no commoner has held in a millennia, the sisters have grown up to become living weapons. Raised to overthrow an empire―no matter the cost. With their mother gone and their country on the brink of war, it falls to the sisters to take the helm of the rebellion and end the cruel reign of a royal family possessed by destructive gods. Because when the ruling alurea invade, they conquer with fire and blood. And when they clash, common folk burn. While Sera reunites with her estranged lover turned violent rebel leader, Galina infiltrates the palace. In this world of deception and danger, her only refuge is an isolated princess, whose whip-smart tongue and sharp gaze threaten to uncover Galina’s secret. Torn between desire and duty, Galina mus

Six for Sunday - most anticipated books of 2018

Hiya.

Today's Six for Sunday is my most anticipated books of 2018.

I did have this worked out a few weeks ago, when I first saw the topic. Two of my most anticipated books were due for release on 4th January. But as it happens, Waterstones got both Sky Song and The Fandom in early, and I now have both the ARC and final release books for both these wonderful titles. Expect reviews soon!

So, with them excluded, here are my six most anticipated releases for next year:

  1. The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert. I love fairy tales and wonderland, and I am very excited about this book.
  2. How Do You Like Me Now by Holly Bourne. Honestly I still haven't read the copy of It Only Happens in the Movies I bought at the launch event, but I'm already excited for Holly's adult debut.
  3. Winds of Winter by George R R Martin. My most anticipated book of the last four years! This one still doesn't have a publication date, but I'm hoping it'll be out sometime in 2018. As soon as it has a date I'll be excitedly counting down the days. 
  4. Fire and Blood vol 1. by George R R Martin. I've read a couple of GRRM's 'history' of Westeros short stories in the anthologies Dangerous Women and Rogues, and really enjoyed them. He's planning a two volume collection of these with further stories fleshing out the history behind the Game of Thrones world, and has suggested that volume one might be out in 2018. Could we really get two GRRM books next year? Or will there be none, yet again?
  5. Song of Sorrow by Melinda Salisbury. I have issues with The Sleeping Prince, but I absolutely loved both The Sin Eater's Daughter and The Scarecrow Queen, so I've got high hopes for this new novel.
  6. Spark by Alice Broadway. Ink was one of my favourite books of the year, with a unique set up that really drew me into its world. This is the second volume of a planned sequel and I can't wait to see where Alice goes with the story.
Thanks again to Steph for coming up with these. I'm looking forward to seeing what she's got planned for next year. Check out her blog at https://alittlebutalot.wordpress.com/
