Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted over at Wishful Endings to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about and have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released, but not necessarily. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, which was originally hosted at Breaking the Spine.
My pick for this week is second in a gripping new fantasy romance series (following The Blacksmith Queen) featuring a Blacksmith Queen, a Princess Knight, and a centaur warrior clan…
Title: The Princess Knight
Author: G.A. Aiken
Publisher: Kensington
Publication Date: Nov. 24 2020
Genres: Epic fantasy, Romance
Shelves: Female-author, female-fronted
Gemma Smythe dedicated her life to the glory of battle. With her fellow War Monks, she worshiped the war gods, rained destruction on her enemies, and raised the dead when the fancy took her. Until her sister Keeley became the prophesied Blacksmith Queen, and Gemma broke faith with her order to journey to the Amichai Mountain and fight by Keeley’s side.
The Amichai warriors are an unruly, never-to-be-tamed lot, especially their leader-in-waiting, Quinn. But when the War Monks declare support for Gemma’s ruthless younger sister Beatrix, the immaturity of her key ally is the least of Gemma’s problems. She has to get to the grand masters, dispel their grudge against her, and persuade them to fight for Keeley and justice. If her conviction can’t sway them, perhaps Quinn’s irritating, irreverent, clearly unhinged, ferocity will win the day . . .

Raising the dead when you feel like it? Sounds like an interesting talent😁
