Waiting on Wednesday (10)


 Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine in which we showcase upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating.


Serpent's Shadow (The Kane Chronicles #3)
by Rick Riordan
Release Date: May 1, 2012


Goodreads Synopsis:
He's b-a-a-ack! Despite their best efforts, Carter and Sade Kane can’t seem to keep Apophis, the chaos snake, down. Now Apophis is threatening to plunge the world into eternal darkness, and the Kanes are faced with the impossible task of having to destroy him once and for all. Unfortunately, the magicians of the House of Life are on the brink of civil war, the gods are divided, and the young initiates of Brooklyn House stand almost alone against the forces of chaos.

To find the answer they need, the Kanes must rely on the murderous ghost of a powerful magician who might be able to lead them to the serpent’s shadow... or might lead them to their deaths in the depths of the underworld...

Why:

This is what I do every time I realize May 1st is getting closer and closer.
Well, if I was black and could actually do that, that's what I'd be doing. But alas, I'm not that awesome :P But y'all get the point. Rick Riordan is one of my favorite authors. Seriously, this guy is AMAZING! I first fell in love with his Percy Jackson series and when The Kane Chronicles came out, I just had to get my greedy hands on it and I was not disappointed. When a series can make you laugh and cry (well, almost cry in my case which is a huge accomplishment on the author's part), has heart-pounding action adventures and makes your heart go all a-flutter then you know that its pure awesomeness. So, to say I'm excited for this is a huge understatement. I'm freakin psyched! Just look at the gif again!!

P.S. Sorry for lack of reviews this week. I promise I have em coming, but I forgot to schedule them this week and with the movers and all I've been pretty darn busy. Thanks for understanding :) Reviews coming soon! 

All the Best ♥
