Waiting on Wednesday: 04/15/15

This bookish meme tells the blogosphere what we're waiting patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for! It's hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine!

The Witch Hunter

The Witch Hunter by Virginia Boecker

     The magic and suspense of Graceling meet the political intrigue and unrest of Game of Thrones in this riveting fantasy debut.
     Your greatest enemy isn't what you fight, but what you fear.
     Elizabeth Grey is one of the king's best witch hunters, devoted to rooting out witchcraft and doling out justice. But when she's accused of being a witch herself, Elizabeth is arrested and sentenced to burn at the stake.
     Salvation comes from a man she thought was her enemy. Nicholas Perevil, the most powerful and dangerous wizard in the kingdom, offers her a deal: he will save her from execution if she can break the deadly curse that's been laid upon him.
     But Nicholas and his followers know nothing of Elizabeth's witch hunting past--if they find out, the stake will be the least of her worries. And as she's thrust into the magical world of witches, ghosts, pirates, and one all-too-handsome healer, Elizabeth is forced to redefine her ideas of right and wrong, of friends and enemies, and of love and hate.
     Virginia Boecker weaves a riveting tale of magic, betrayal, and sacrifice in this unforgettable fantasy debut.

Why I'm Waiting: I've been wanting a really great witch book since A Trail of Fire by Angelini came out last year. And this one sounds like it could finally be what I'm looking for! Add on to the fact that it has pirates, witches, wizards, and more in it?! Psssh of course I'm waiting on this one! 

What are you waiting on this week?
Will you be waiting on this with me?
