Last Ten Books That Came Into Kim's Possession
One of the best things about being an Ace/Roc Star is all the new and upcoming books that they send me. Eight of the ten books below came from them! A lot of the books come out in September so you’ll have plenty of time to pre-order a copy.



1. The Aeronaut's Windlass (The Cinder Spires #1) by Jim Butcher
This one doesn’t come out until September. My husband just finished it, and loved it. He kept laughing and said I would adore the cat. I’ve read the Harry Dresden series by Jim Butcher and really like it, so I’m excited about the first books in this new series.





2. Linesman by S.K. Dunstall
I just finished this one, and it was excellent. I don’t read a lot of Sci-Fi, but was glad I decided to read this one. Lots of action, and great characters who grow throughout the book. This is the first one in a new series and I am looking forward to the next one. You can find my review from yesterday HERE.

Kayla's Top Ten(ish) Most Anticipated Releases For the Rest of 2015



1. The Philosopher Kings (Thessaly #2) by Jo Walton
June 30, 2015
I really enjoyed the first book in this Thessaly series/duology/whatever (my review is HERE), and I've been anxiously awaiting The Philosopher Kings. There's a bit of a cliffhanger at the end of The Just City, but Jo Walton's writing is super smart. If you like anything to do with Greek mythology, I can almost guarantee that you'll enjoy this.





2. Darkhaven by A.F.E. Smith
July 2, 2015
It's a fantasy novel with an alicorn on the cover. Why wouldn't I want to read it?!

Waiting on Wednesday (109): The Aeronaut's Windlass by Jim Butcher

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.



Title: The Aeronaut's Windlass (The Cinder Spires #1)
Author: Jim Butcher
Publisher: Roc (Penguin Random House)
Release Date: September 19, 2015
Since time immemorial, the Spires have sheltered humanity, towering for miles over the mist-shrouded surface of the world. Within their halls, aristocratic houses have ruled for generations, developing scientific marvels, fostering trade alliances, and building fleets of airships to keep the peace.

Captain Grimm commands the merchant ship, Predator. Fiercely loyal to Spire Albion, he has taken their side in the cold war with Spire Aurora, disrupting the enemy’s shipping lines by attacking their cargo vessels. But when the Predator is severely damaged in combat, leaving captain and crew grounded, Grimm is offered a proposition from the Spirearch of Albion—to join a team of agents on a vital mission in exchange for fully restoring Predator to its fighting glory.

And even as Grimm undertakes this dangerous task, he will learn that the conflict between the Spires is merely a premonition of things to come. Humanity’s ancient enemy, silent for more than ten thousand years, has begun to stir once more. And death will follow in its wake...


Jim Butcher writing steampunk! Squee! This does remind me that I still need to finish his Codex Alera series...
What are you waiting on this week?
