Waiting On Wednesday - Starborn by Lucy Hounsom


Welcome to Waiting On Wednesday here at

 Winterhaven Books!

This is a feature created by Jill at Breaking The Spine where we share some books we are anxiously awaiting.


This week's pick...


Starborn (The Worldmaker Trilogy #1)by Lucy Hounsom
Expected publication: April 23rd 2015 by Tor UK


 Death and destruction will bar her way...
 Kyndra's fate holds betrayal and salvation, but the journey starts in her small village. On the day she comes of age, she accidentally disrupts an ancient ceremony, ending centuries of tradition. So when an unnatural storm targets her superstitious community, Kyndra is blamed. She fears for her life until two strangers save her, by wielding powers not seen for an age - powers fuelled by the sun and the moon. Together, they flee to the hidden citadel of Naris. And here, Kyndra experiences disturbing visions of the past, showing war and one man's terrifying response. She'll learn more in the city's subterranean chambers, amongst fanatics and rebels. But first Kyndra will be brutally tested in a bid to unlock her own magic. If she survives the ordeal, she'll discover a force greater than she could ever have imagined. But could it create as well as destroy? And can she control it, to right an ancient wrong? 
Book One of the Worldmaker Trilogy

I don't know who I have to bribe at Tor UK to get my hands on a copy of this but any takers let me know!! I pay we11. KIDDING. I love the premise of course. I have always found people beliefs in superstitions to be a strange yet interesting thing. Thank goodness I don't have to wait to long for this one!
