Waiting on Wednesday

Waiting On Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine

Shards and Ashes edited by Melissa Marr and Kelley Armstrong 
Gripping original stories of dystopian worlds from nine New York Times bestselling authors, edited by Melissa Marr and Kelley Armstrong

The world is gone, destroyed by human, ecological, or supernatural causes. Survivors dodge chemical warfare and cruel gods; they travel the reaches of space and inhabit underground caverns. Their enemies are disease, corrupt corporations, and one another; their resources are few, and their courage is tested.

Powerful original dystopian tales from nine bestselling authors offer bleak insight, prophetic visions, and precious glimmers of light among the shards and ashes of a ruined world.

Stories from:
Kelley Armstrong
Rachel Caine
Kami Garcia
Nancy Holder
Melissa Marr
Beth Revis
Veronica Roth
Carrie Ryan
Margaret Stohl
It's pretty rare that there's an anthology where I'm a) already familiar with all of the authors contributing and b) like or love them all as well but Shards and Ashes out in February managed both!

Released February 19, 2013 by Harper Collins and I can't wait - add it on Goodreads; pre-order on Amazon


Link me to your pick for the week!

  4. This looks awesome. I really like pretty much all of these authors so I'm betting this is going to be one of those rare anthologies where I don't skip right to my favorite author's story :)
