I certainly like it better than the Iron-Crowned cover. In that one, Eugenie looked as if she was holding a tambourine instead of the crown relic. I really love the colors of this one and the background is lovely. I can't wait to read this!!!
Here's the blurb:
#1 New York Times bestselling author Richelle Mead returns to the Otherworld, a mystic land inextricably linked to our own--and balanced precariously on one woman's desperate courage...
Shaman-for-hire Eugenie Markham strives to keep the mortal realm safe from trespassing entities. But as the Thorn Land's prophecy-haunted queen, there's no refuge for her and her soon-to-be-born-children when a mysterious blight begins to devastate the Otherworld...
The spell-driven source of the blight isn't the only challenge to Eugenie's instincts. Fairy king Dorian is sacrificing everything to help, but Eugenie can't trust the synergy drawing them back together. The uneasy truce between her and her shape shifter ex-lover Kiyo is endangered by secrets he can't--or won't--reveal. And as a formidable force rises to also threaten the human world, Eugenie must use her own cursed fate as a weapon--and risk the ultimate sacrifice...
Okay, so now that you've read that blurb, did you see the part that says, "The uneasy truce between her and her shape shifter ex-lover Kiyo is endangered by secrets he can't--or won't--reveal."
WHAT DO YOU MEAN TRUCE?!?!!? How many chances does this guy get? Eugenie should have kicked this mofo back into yesterday!
Mead works me up like no other. I adore her.
