Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. The weekly event is meant to showcase eagerly anticipated upcoming releases…and to spread the word! This week I’m excited about:
For centuries, the Others and humans have lived side by side in uneasy peace. But when humankind oversteps its bounds, the Others will have to decide how much humanity they’re willing to tolerate—both within themselves and within their community…

Since the Others allied themselves with the cassandra sangue, the fragile yet powerful human blood prophets who were being exploited by their own kind, the delicate dynamic between humans and Others changed. Some, like Simon Wolfgard, wolf shifter and leader of the Lakeside Courtyard, and blood prophet Meg Corbyn, see the new, closer companionship as beneficial—both personally and practically.
But not everyone is convinced. A group of radical humans is seeking to usurp land through a series of violent attacks on the Others. What they don’t realize is that there are older and more dangerous forces than shifters and vampires protecting the land that belongs to the Others—and those forces are willing to do whatever is necessary to protect what is theirs…
If you’ve been following along here for a while, then you probably know all about my love for Anne Bishop’s urban fantasy series The Others. When I saw that the cover had been revealed for the fourth book – along with an excerpt – on USA Today I was over the moon. I love that these covers are a) consistent b) reflect Meg and c) always have Meg completely clothed. No leather pants and katanas for Meg!
I’m beyond excited for this one – we’re talking slavering territory, here.
Are you following along with The Others series? Have you read anything by Anne Bishop? What books are you looking forward to this week? Let me know in the comments!

Oh, I hadn’t seen the cover for this one yet. And I agree that the covers are consistent–something I really like in a series. This is also a book I will be very excited to finally get to read next spring!
AHHHH excellent! This is one of my favourite all-time UF series…and it remains fairly short since it’s being capped at five books (unlike the usual 10+ for most UF).
LOL this was almost going to be my pick for this week. I saw the cover last week and was like ooooh! Very glad to have caught up with the series earlier this year so I’ll be ready. Looking forward to this as well, and maybe you’ll see it on my WoW in a couple weeks 🙂

I really like these covers a lot, very pleased that they continue to match! Can’t wait until we can all go back to the world of the Others. 🙂
One of these days I will read the first one. I promise. There’s just not enough time for all the books! 🙂

Hehehe, scooped ya! This cover is very pretty and matches the series so I’m happy as a clam. I will keep my eyes peeled for your WoW post. 😉
