Waiting on Wednesday is a feature hosted by Breaking The Spine. This is my anticipated book of the week!
Fifteen years ago, I ran away from Whisper Hollow, Washington, a small town on Crescent Lake in the Olympic Peninsula. But truth is, if you were born here, you can never really leave. I’m Kerris Fellwater, and I’m a spirit shaman. It’s my responsibility to drive the dead back to their graves, because around Whisper Hollow, people—and secrets—don’t always stay buried.
My best friend Peggin finds herself under a curse after she is almost taken by the Lady of the Lake, and the Unliving are determined to drag her back to the hungry waters. As Bryan—my guardian and mate—and I work to break the hex, we uncover a dark and violent mystery from the past. One the Hounds of Cú Chulainn will do anything to guard—even if they must summon a legion of the dead to destroy Whisper Hollow.
Book one, Autumn Thorns, introduced us to Whisper Hollow and all the strange characters that reside there. Kerris is taking her grandmother’s place as the spirit shaman. There was a lot of world building in book one, with the different characters, their magic and rituals. I’m excited to see if Kerris is adjusting to her new role after all the chaos in Autumn Thorns. This series runs more in the urban fantasy, but there is a romance that will be running throughout the series I think. It’s a pretty obvious one, but I like to have a little romance!
Shadow Silence promises to be full of exciting adventures. I’m especially interested in the Lady of the Lake. We know what she can do, but I want to know more about her! Shadow Silence goes on sale September 27, 2016. If you haven’t read the series, you still have time to read Autumn Thorns too!
