Waiting on Wednesday: More Guilty Pleasures

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by  

My first WoW post was about my guilty pleasure reading - basically those mass market paperbacks I write about on Mondays - and this one is going to continue that tradition.


Tempest's Legacy   
by Nicole Peeler
9780316056601, $7.99, Orbit (Hachette)
Pub. Date: January 2011

Description from the author's website:
After a peaceful hiatus at home in Rockabill, Jane True thinks that her worst problem is that she still throws like a girl – at least while throwing fireballs. Her peace of mind ends, however, when Anyan arrives one night with terrible news . . . news that will rock Jane’s world to its very core.
After demanding to help investigate a series of gruesome attacks on females — supernatural, halfling, and human — Jane quickly finds herself forced to confront her darkest nightmares as well as her deepest desires.
And she’s not sure which she finds more frightening.

If you haven't already discovered this series, run out and pick up book 1: Tempest Rising and book 2: Tracking the Tempest. Please don't be put off by what I personally think are unfortunate covers. The writing is great quality with Jane's snarky voice coming into her own as she explores her growing powers and her increasingly important role as a half-human/half-selkie in the supernatural world.

  1. Thanks for the tip about the covers I have not read this series and probably wouldn't have pick it up either. Sound intersting though.
