Waiting On Wednesday #35


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're excitably anticipating

Ink and Bone (The Great Library #1) by Rachel Caine



Rachel Caine rewrites history, creating a dangerous world where the Great Library of Alexandria has survived the test of time. In 48 AD, a fire set by the troops of Julius Caesar destroyed much of the Great Library of Alexandria. It was the first of several disasters that resulted in the destruction of the accumulated knowledge of the ancient world. But what if the fire had been stopped? What would the Library have become? Fast forward: the Great Library is now a separate country, protected by its own standing army. It has grown into a vast power, with unquestioned and unrivalled supremacy. Jess Brightwell, seventeen and very smart, with a gift for mechanical engineering, has been sent into the Great Library as a spy for his criminal family. Magical spells and riots abound in this epic new YA series.


Expected Publication: July 2015 VIA Allison and Busby

Why I am waiting?

I read most of Rachel Caines Morganville Vampire Series last year and loved them. I am excited to read some more from the author. This book sounds good and am lucky to have a proof to read. 

What are you waiting on?

  5. This book looks amazing! I mean the legendary Great Library at Alexandria is one of the coolest but saddest things in history, and for it to be it's own country is awesome. I just snagged a copy of it and I am so psyched for it.
