Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Breaking the Spine to let readers share their excitement for books coming out soon, and the novel I’m eagerly awaiting is part three of James A. Moore’s fantasy series Seven Forges, which has begun so amazingly with Seven Forges and The Blasted Lands.
City of Wonders by James A. Moore
Genre: Fantasy
Series: Seven Forges #3
Publisher: Angry Robot (November 3, 2015)
Old Canhoon, the City of Wonders, is having a population explosion as refugees from Tyrne and Roathes alike try to escape the Sa’ba Taalor. All along the border between the Blasted Lands and the Fellein Empire armies clash and the most powerful empire in the world is pushed back toward the old Capital. From the far east the Pilgrim gathers an army of the faithful, heading for Old Canhoon.
In Old Canhoon itself the imperial family struggles against enemies old and new as the spies of their enemies begin removing threats to the gods of the Seven Forges and prepare the way for the invading armies of the Seven Kings. In the distant Taalor valley Andover Lashk continues his quest and must make a final decision, while at the Mounds, something inhuman is awakened and set free.
War is Here. Blood will flow and bodies will burn!

I read the first book of this series and really liked it. I need to read the second and this one as well!

The first was a bit stiff in parts, but in book two, Mr. Moore put it all together and delivered a great story. Book three really promises to up the body counts and deliver some amazing body counts.

I love the covers to this series. I still have book two to read before I’m caught up, I’m afraid, but it’s good to hear The Blasted Lands pulls things together.

It grows on you, especially the Saba’Talor; they are so mysterious.
