Waiting on Wednesday (4)

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at http://breakingthespine.blogspot.com/, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week I am featuring Killer Frost by Jennifer Estep! It's the final book in the Mythos Academy series, and that alone brings me near tears. The first five books are completely amazing and I can't wait to see how the series ends. It's always sad to say goodbye, but I know it will end with a bang.

Synopsis:

I’ve battled the Reapers of Chaos before–and survived. But this time I have a Bad, Bad Feeling it’s going to be a fight to the death … most likely mine.

Yeah, I’ve got my psychometry magic, my talking sword, Vic–and even the most dangerous Spartan on campus at my side, in Logan freaking Quinn, but I’m no match for Loki, the evil Norse god of chaos. I may be Nike’s Champion, but at heart, I’m still just Gwen Frost, that weird Gypsy girl everyone at school loves to gossip about.

Then someone I love is put in more danger than ever before, and something inside me snaps. This time, Loki and his Reapers are going down for good … or I am.

Release Date: February 25, 2014

Crimson Frost by Jennifer Estep

I loved Crimson Frost. I probably read it in less than twenty-four hours, and that's saying something with the amount of work I've been packed down with. This book is the fourth in the Mythos Academy series and I swear, it's the best one yet! The author had me flipping pages faster than a tornado wind. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading it!

Gwen Frost is the main character. She's a gypsy with the gift of psychometry-being able to touch things and basically know everything that's happened to him/her/it. She also happens to be Nike's champion. Gwen is powerful and strong, but is arrested at the beginning of the book for a crime she didn't commit.  Let me tell you, when that happened, my jaw just about dropped on the ground, I was so surprised. But she stays true to herself and does what needs to be done to save herself...and the world.

Crimson Frost was REALLY good! I severely enjoyed the book. The previous books in the series are Touch of Frost, Kiss of Frost, and Dark Frost. The next book, Midnight Frost, comes out in July 2013. It's an amazing series, but I recommend it for older readers. Yeah, definitely older readers. Anyway, I give it a full five star review.
