"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. 

Messenger of Fear

September 24, 2014

Mara wakes in a field of dead grass, a heavy mist pressing down on her. She is terrified, afraid that she is dead. Then a beautiful young man dressed in black appears. He calls himself Messenger of Fear.

This boy is able to move effortlessly through space and time. He also sees the darkness in human hearts. He sees the evils done: the destructive lies, the cruelty, the bullying, the violence. And if the world does not bring justice to those who do evil, he will. He offers the wicked a game. If they win, they go free. If they lose, they will live their greatest fear. Either way, their sanity will be challenged.

It is a world of fair but harsh justice. Of retribution and redemption. And mystery. Why was Mara chosen to be the Messenger’s apprentice? What has she done to deserve this terrible fate? She won’t find out until three of the wicked receive justice. And when she does, she will be shattered.
I never did read Michael Grant's Gone series, but I know P.E is a big fan so it must be good. This one look especially good though. I love the idea of a "Messenger of Fear" and how Mara is an apprentice. The game is interesting and mysterious. I just really want to know what all of this is about!

What Are You Waiting On?

    The cover is very ominous and the book sounds quite unusual!
    I haven't read anything by this author before either, but I'm quite curious about this one!
    Great pick!

      Exactly! I love the cover and was quite shocked it was a Michael Grant book since it's different from his usual books. But who am I to complain about beautifulness. Can't wait.
