Shadow Scale

by Rachel Hartman

Expected Publication: Mar. 10, 2015

   

The kingdom of Goredd: a world where humans and dragons share life with an uneasy balance, and those few who are both human and dragon must hide the truth. Seraphina is one of these, part girl, part dragon, who is reluctantly drawn into the politics of her world. When war breaks out between the dragons and humans, she must travel the lands to find those like herself—for she has an inexplicable connection to all of them, and together they will be able to fight the dragons in powerful, magical ways.
 
As Seraphina gathers this motley crew, she is pursued by humans who want to stop her. But the most terrifying is another half dragon, who can creep into people’s minds and take them over. Until now, Seraphina has kept her mind safe from intruders, but that also means she’s held back her own gift. It is time to make a choice: Cling to the safety of her old life, or embrace a powerful new destiny?

   

This book has been a long time coming, and I’m so excited that it finally has a cover, blurb and release day! I loved Seraphina — the world, the politics, the fantasy, the romance, Seraphina herself —  and I cannot wait to see what Rachel Hartman has in store for us next.

I’m so overwhelmed with curiosity on this one.  I’ve been dying to know what happens next in this incredible world with its epic awesome!  Shadowscale can not get here soon enough!

So… what are you looking forward to this Wednesday?
