"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly waiting to get into our hands.
This week I'm waiting on....
The Originals: The Rise
Family is power. The Original vampire family swore it to each other a thousand years ago. They pledged to remain together always and forever. But even when you're immortal, promises are hard to keep.
Arriving in New Orleans in 1722, Original vampire siblings Klaus, Elijah and Rebekah Mikaelson believe they've escaped their dangerous past. But the city is lawless, a haven for witches and werewolves unwilling to share territory. The siblings are at their mercy…especially after Klaus meets the beautiful and mysterious Vivianne. Her impending marriage is key to ending the war between the supernatural factions—and Klaus's attraction to her could destroy the uneasy alliance. As Elijah works toward securing a piece of the city for his family, and Rebekah fights her unexpected feelings for a French captain, will Klaus's volatile desires bring their world crashing down—and tear them apart for good?
Why I Want It:
I am such a fan of The CW's The Originals, so any chance I have for more Klaus and Elijah and I am all over that. Plus, with Julie Plec helming this project, I know it'll be done right.
The Originals: The Rise will be released Jan. 27, 2015 by Harlequin
I would love to read this. I haven't read any of the VD books, though. I do watch the shows. Wonder if it would kill it for me? Great choice! My WOW
ReplyDeleteDO NOT READ THE VD BOOKS! They're nothing like the show and honestly not like YA today. They're very dated since they came out in the 90s.
