“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme originally hosted on 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. This is a great way to share upcoming releases you’re excited about!
You all know I really loved EMILY WILDE’S ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF FAERIES by Heather Fawcett and I have been waiting eagerly for news about the sequel. I always wanted to spotlight it post the cover reveal, and forgot. Now, I’ve seen reason, and here is me saying that it is one of my most anticipated winter reads, and might even be at the top.
I really liked where the first book left off, and well, I want to see more of Emily’s social awkwardness in book two. Whatever happens with the romance, happens, I guess. No expectations there, but oh, I would love for the same banter.
Here’s the synopsis:
An intrepid professor must uncover faerie secrets in the delightful and heart-warming second instalment of the Sunday Times bestselling Emily Wilde series.
Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore, and has catalogued many secrets of the Hidden Folk in her encyclopaedia with her infuriatingly charming fellow scholar, Wendell Bambleby, by her side.
But Bambleby is more than just a brilliant and unbearably handsome scholar. He’s an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother, in search of a door back to his realm.
By lucky happenstance, Emily’s new project, a map of the realms of faerie, will take them on an adventure to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby’s realm, and the key to freeing him from his family’s dark plans.
But with new friendships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors, and of her own heart.
EMILY WILDE’S MAP OF THE OTHERLANDS is the second book in the EMILY WILDE series and will be published by Orbit Books UK and Del Rey in the U.S. in January 2024.
