Now on to some cool covers of upcoming books that I’m looking forward to!
Rachel Caine’s sixth novel in the Morganville Vampire series, Carpe Corpus, is due to be released in June 2009. And if you have your copy of Lord of Misrule, there’s an excerpt in the back from Carpe Corpus!
Anton Strout’s second book in the Simon Canderous series, Deader Still will be released next week on Feb 24th!
Amber Benson, who starred as Tara on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, has a new Urban Fantasy book, Death’s Daughter, coming out on Feb 24th!
Here’s a bit about the book from the publisher.
“Calliope Reaper-Jones so just wanted a normal life: buying designer shoes on sale, dating guys from Craig’s List, web-surfing for organic dim-sum for her boss…
But when her father – who happens to be Death himself – is kidnapped, and the Devil’s Protege embarks on a hostile takeover of the family business, Death, Inc., Callie returns home to assume the CEO mantle – only to discover she must complete three nearly impossible tasks in the realm of the afterlife first.”
Laurell K. Hamilton’s eighth book in the Meredith Gentry series, Divine Misdemeanors will be out October 27th, 2009!
Beth Fantaskey’s Young Adult novel, Jessica’s Guide To Dating On The Dark Side, is already on the shelves, but I had to mention it because I’ve been hearing great things about it and am dying to get my hands on a copy!
Lili Saintcrow ventures into the Young Adult arena with Strange Angels, due to be released on May 19th, 2009! I’m looking forward to this book as I am a huge fan of her other series.
Sidhe’s News & Updates
Just a quick post to let you know that I am in the process of writing up some reviews. I’ll also be putting up a quick list of January Releases, (my wishlist), February Releases, (again, my wishlist, lol), and some news and tid-bits I’ve come across. Actually, here’s a couple of new covers I’ve come across to drool over.
Book 6 of Rachel Caine’s Morganville Vampire Series, Carpe Corpus. The release date is June 2, 2009. I can’t wait!
J.F. Lewis’s, ReVamped, the sequel to his amazing Urban Fantasy debut, Staked, will be hitting the shelves on March 10th, 2009!
Strange Angels, which is Lilith Saintcrow’s foray into the Young Adult market, I believe her first, has me wishing for May 19th, 2009!
Richelle Mead’s follow up to Storm Born in the Dark Swan Novels, is Thorn Queen. It’s a bit of a wait until August 2009, but I loved the first book and am looking forward to this one!
So there we have some awesome covers of books to look forward to and add to your wishlist or pre-order. I’ve also recently up-dated my wishlist on the side-bar, as-well-as my Books Recieved pages. Next up is the Blogroll and the never ending TBR and Keeper Shelf updates. I have a ton of reviews to get posted too. 🙂
Bad Blogger & Updates
My deepest apologies for having disappeared for the last week or so. My bloody laptop died , AGAIN! It’s off being “fixed” for the third time, and I’ve run out of explicatives to describe my frustration and anger.
Buried at PhotoCasket About covers it!
I was also in a wedding party over the weekend at my best friend’s wedding. It was a really beautiful ceremony and wonderful dinner. My feet, on the other-hand, in the heels I was wearing, decided to launch a revolt and I now have a pinched nerve and no feeling in one toe. Oh!! Look, it’s me visiting my dead feet!
