WoW #241 ~ Seasparrow

Posted August 17, 2022 by Lillian in Features / 1 Comment

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event originally created and hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we are all eagerly anticipating. Jill has been MIA since August of 2016. Despite this, the meme lives on….Hope you come back Jill! Until then I will be joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can’t-Wait Wednesday.

Happy Wednesday y’all! Today I’m eagerly waiting on Seasparrow by Kristin Cashore, the fifth book in the Graceling Realm series. This is one of my all-time favorite fantasies. I’m so excited to return to the world, and this time get Hava’s perspective. She’s a fun character already, and I’m curious to know more about her. Plus, just LOOK at that cover *drools*

WoW #241 ~ SeasparrowSeasparrow by Kristin Cashore
Series: Graceling Realm #5
Published by Dutton Books for Young Readers on 2022-11-01
Length: 624 pages

The fifth novel in the bestselling Graceling Realm series is told from the point of view of Hava, Queen Bitterblue’s sister and spy, and chronicles the harrowing journey back to Monsea.

Hava sails across the sea toward Monsea with her sister, the royal entourage, and the world’s only copies of the formulas for the zilfium weapon she saved at the end of Winterkeep. During the crossing, Hava makes an unexpected discovery about one of the ship’s crew, but before she can unravel the mystery, storms drive their ship off course, wrecking them in the ice far north of the Royal Continent. The survivors must endure a harrowing trek across the ice to make it back to Monsea. And while Queen Bitterblue grapples with how to carry the responsibility of a weapon that will change the world, Hava has a few more mysteries to solve —and a decision to make about who she wants to be in the new world Bitterblue will build.
