Waiting On Wednesday ... Realm Breaker

 Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's pick is Realm Breaker by Victoria Aveyard

Here is the Goodreads synopsis

Irresistibly action-packed and full of lethal surprises, this new fantasy series begins where hope is lost and asks: When the heroes have fallen, who will take up the sword?

A strange darkness grows in Allward.

Even Corayne an-Amarat can feel it, tucked away in her small town at the edge of the sea.

She soon discovers the truth: She is the last of an ancient lineage—and the last hope to save the world from destruction. But she won’t be alone. Even as darkness falls, she is joined by a band of unlikely companions:

A squire, forced to choose between home and honor.

An immortal, avenging a broken promise.

An assassin, exiled and bloodthirsty.

An ancient sorceress, whose riddles hide an eerie foresight.

A forger with a secret past.

A bounty hunter with a score to settle.

Together they stand against a vicious opponent, invincible and determined to burn all kingdoms to ash, and an army unlike anything the realm has ever witnessed. 

I loved the Red Queen series and was excited to hear that Victoria Aveyard has another book coming out and that it would start a brand new series.

I love the sound of this cast of characters and I cannot wait to meet them. The fact that this is is another fantasy series is also something that has me excited. I love books that have maps and this one promises to include one.

This comes out in time to help kick off summer reading season. Hopefully we'll be able to enjoy it at the beach or by the pool!

Expected release date - May 4, 2021
