Can't-Wait
Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishing Endings to spotlight and talk about
the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they're books
that have yet to be released as well. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday,
hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. Find out more here.
THE LIBRARY OF FATES BY ADITI KHORANA
Hardcover, 354 Pages
Young Adult, Fiction, Fantasy
Publisher: Razorbill
Release Date: July
18th 2017
A romantic
coming-of-age fantasy tale steeped in Indian folklore, perfect for fans of The
Star-Touched Queen and The Wrath and the Dawn
No one is entirely certain what brings the Emperor Sikander to
Shalingar. Until now, the idyllic kingdom has been immune to his many violent
conquests. To keep the visit friendly, Princess Amrita has offered herself as
his bride, sacrificing everything—family, her childhood love, and her
freedom—to save her people. But her offer isn't enough.
The unthinkable happens, and Amrita finds herself a fugitive,
utterly alone but for an oracle named Thala, who was kept by Sikander as a
slave and managed to escape amid the chaos of a palace under siege. With
nothing and no one else to turn to, Amrita and Thala are forced to rely on each
other. But while Amrita feels responsible for her kingdom and sets out to warn
her people, the newly free Thala has no such ties. She encourages Amrita to
go on a quest to find the fabled Library of All Things, where it is possible
for each of them to reverse their fates. To go back to before Sikander took
everything from them.
Stripped of all that she loves, caught between her rosy past and
an unknown future, will Amrita be able to restore what was lost, or does
another life—and another love—await?
