"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: The House of the Four Winds
Series: One Dozen Daughters 1
Author: Mercedes Lackey & James Mallory
Language: English
Expected Publication: August 5, 2014
Summary:
The rulers of tiny, impoverished Swansgaard have twelve daughters and one son. While the prince’s future is assured, his twelve sisters must find their own fortunes.
Disguising herself as Clarence, a sailor, Princess Clarice intends to work her way to the New World. When the crew rebels, Clarice/Clarence, an expert with rapier and dagger, sides with the handsome navigator, Dominick, and kills the cruel captain.
Dominick leads the now-outlawed crew in search of treasure in the secret pirate haven known as The House of Four Winds. They encounter the sorceress Shamal, who claims Dominick for her own—but Clarice has fallen hard for Dominick and won’t give him up without a fight.
Why I am looking forward to this: Love this cover! Being a Pirates of the Carribean fan, I love watching pirates, but have to say I never read a story on them. So this is a bit out of my usual, which makes me like it even more. =)
I LOVE the sound of this one!! I'll be keeping an eye out for it for sure!
Here’s My WoW!

Oo this one sounds fantastic. Like Pirates of the Caribbean meets the 12 Dancing Princess. This is one that will be heading to the ole TBR I think.

Oh man, I JUST discovered this one today myself and I've instantly added it to my wishlist/TBR shelf. It sounds freaking amazing!! I'm a huge Pirates of the Caribbean Fan as well ( well, pirate fan in general too I suppose)and the idea of a girl posing as a boy and becoming a pirate in a world of magic just sounds super appealing to me 😀 Hopefully we can BOTH get our hands on this one soon!! Brilliant pick ^^ and thanks for stopping by earlier!
Oh and since we seem like we like a lot of the same books, I've gone ahead and followed you via Bloglovin' and Networked Blogs 🙂
