Waiting on Wednesday June 12th

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine showcasing upcoming books that we are waiting, often impatiently, to be released.


Affliction by Laurell K Hamilton

Micah is called back home by his estranged family, because his father, a county sheriff, has been attacked and is terribly injured. Anita and Nathaniel are going with him for moral support and to meet his family under very trying circumstances.

Micah has been estranged from his family for a decade, deliberately turning his back on them to protect them from the sadistic killer who once led his leopard pack. But now Micah’s father lies dying, rotting away inside from some strange ailment that has his doctors whispering about “zombie disease.”

Anita—who understands zombies better than anyone—knows there’s more to it than that. While zombies have unlovable traits, being one doesn’t cause human beings to rot in agony. She needs to solve that mystery—but now a more immediate issue is pressing: Micah’s father may have only five days to live.

Release Date: July 2, 2013

Why This book?

I am waiting on this book because I just have to keep reading them.  For a while it was like the train wreck that you just couldn't look away from, but they are getting better again.  I am so glad that I have stuck with the series.  Here's hoping that it is as good (or better) than the last one and that this trend continues.
