Waiting on Wednesday 05/16/2012

WoW is hosted by Breaking the Spine each...you guessed it - Wednesday! Bloggers share the coming release that we are most excited for at the moment.

This weeks feature is....

This is the second book in the Sentinels of New Orleans series

Hurricane Katrina is long gone, but the preternatural storm rages on in New Orleans. New species from the Beyond moved into Louisiana after the hurricane destroyed the borders between worlds, and it falls to wizard sentinel Drusilla Jaco and her partner, Alex Warin, to keep the preternaturals peaceful and the humans unaware. But a war is brewing between two clans of Cajun merpeople in Plaquemines Parish, and down in the swamp, DJ learns, there’s more stirring than angry mermen and the threat of a were-gator. 
Wizards are dying, and something—or someone—from the Beyond is poisoning the waters of the mighty Mississippi, threatening the humans who live and work along the river. DJ and Alex must figure out what unearthly source is contaminating the water and who—or what—is killing the wizards. Is it a malcontented merman, the naughty nymph, or some other critter altogether? After all, DJ’s undead suitor, the pirate Jean Lafitte, knows his way around a body or two.
It’s anything but smooth sailing on the bayou as the Sentinels of New Orleans series continues.

Hardcover, 320 pages
Expected publication: November 13th 2012 by Tom Doherty Associates

  2. This is a wonderful book and ranks with the top bestsellers I've read. Jenkinson does a great job of bringing his characters to life and the interaction between them rings authentic. His descriptions of Charleston and the small southern town, Weenee, are spot on. I'd highly recommend this book for anyone looking for an entertaining read.
