We wanted to do another bookish meme on Wednesday and after doing Can’t Wait Wednesday a few times we decided that would be a fun one to bring around more often! About twice a month you’ll see this meme on our blog.

Can’t Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

A story of power and friendship, of trust and betrayal, and of the families we choose.

“I didn’t know you were a… demon.”
“You idiot. I’m the demon.”
Kai’s having a long day in Martha Wells’ Witch King….

After being murdered, his consciousness dormant and unaware of the passing of time while confined in an elaborate water trap, Kai wakes to find a lesser mage attempting to harness Kai’s magic to his own advantage. That was never going to go well.

But why was Kai imprisoned in the first place? What has changed in the world since his assassination? And why does the Rising World Coalition appear to be growing in influence?

Kai will need to pull his allies close and draw on all his pain magic if he is to answer even the least of these questions.

He’s not going to like the answers.

I loved Martha Wells’ Murderbot series, and I also really need to continue since there have been new releases, but I also really want to read this new epic fantasy as soon as it releases. Our main character is a demon and I think Martha Wells’ will have written him in a very interesting way. I’m sure I will love him!

The synopsis is a bit vague and I guess this is one of those books you just jump into and will experience what it’s all about. I can’t wait to find out what this world is all about and getting to know Kai. So far I’ve only read novella’s by Martha Wells so I’m curious to see what she can do with a full length novel.

Have you read anything by Martha Wells yet? And was this one on your radar? Are you adding it to you TBR? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments down below!
