Waiting On Wednesday!


Hey fellow readers! It's another posting of Waiting On Wednesday! Hosted by Breaking The Spine, this week's pre-publication is...


Shadow Of Night
by Deborah Harkness
Expected Publication Date: July 10, 2012





Deborah Harkness exploded onto the literary scene with her debut novel, A Discovery of Witches, Book One of the magical All Souls Trilogy and an international publishing phenomenon. The novel introduced Diana Bishop, Oxford scholar and reluctant witch, and the handsome geneticist and vampire Matthew Clairmont; together they found themselves at the center of a supernatural battle over an enchanted manuscript known as Ashmole 782.

Now, picking up from A Discovery of Witches’ cliffhanger ending, Shadow of Night plunges Diana and Matthew into Elizabethan London, a world of spies, subterfuge, and a coterie of Matthew’s old friends, the mysterious School of Night that includes Christopher Marlowe and Walter Raleigh. Here, Diana must locate a witch to tutor her in magic, Matthew is forced to confront a past he thought he had put to rest, and the mystery of Ashmole 782 deepens.

Deborah Harkness has crafted a gripping journey through a world of alchemy, time travel, and magical discoveries, delivering one of the most hotly anticipated novels of the season.

I loved A Discovery of Witches, though ridiculously long, it had a great story behind it and great characters to fall back on with awesome supernatural powers. And I also can't wait for the relationship between the main characters, Matthew and Diana. Be sure to leave a link and let me know what pre-publication you are waiting for.

  4. Sounds really good. Though I can't imagine a vampire as a geneticist... But at the same time, a good writer could pull that off.
