Waiting on Wednesday 11/01/17
“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!
Mogsy’s Pick
Persepolis Rising by James S.A. Corey (December 5, 2017 by Orbit Books)
Another Expanse novel (book number 7!) is on the horizon and is releasing soon. I can’t wait!
“In the thousand-sun network of humanity’s expansion, new colony worlds are struggling to find their way. Every new planet lives on a knife edge between collapse and wonder, and the crew of the aging gunship Rocinante have their hands more than full keeping the fragile peace.
In the vast space between Earth and Jupiter, the inner planets and belt have formed a tentative and uncertain alliance still haunted by a history of wars and prejudices. On the lost colony world of Laconia, a hidden enemy has a new vision for all of humanity and the power to enforce it.
New technologies clash with old as the history of human conflict returns to its ancient patterns of war and subjugation. But human nature is not the only enemy, and the forces being unleashed have their own price. A price that will change the shape of humanity — and of the Rocinante — unexpectedly and forever…”
OOh nice pick! That’s a totally new to me one! Hope you love it once you read it!

Starting the countdown here!!! 🙂
And the mention of Laconia in the synopsis makes me believe this new book is tied to the events of “Strange Dogs”, which makes it even more interesting!
