Waiting on Wednesdays is a weekly event hosted at Breaking the Spine. The purpose is to spotlight upcoming book releases that we are excited for.
Vision in Silver (The Others, #3) by Anne Bishop
Publisher: Roc
The Others freed the cassandra sangue to protect the blood prophets from exploitation, not realizing their actions would have dire consequences. Now the fragile seers are in greater danger than ever before—both from their own weaknesses and from those who seek to control their divinations for wicked purposes. In desperate need of answers, Simon Wolfgard, a shape-shifter leader among the Others, has no choice but to enlist blood prophet Meg Corbyn’s help, regardless of the risks she faces by aiding him.
Meg is still deep in the throes of her addiction to the euphoria she feels when she cuts and speaks prophecy. She knows each slice of her blade tempts death. But Others and humans alike need answers, and her visions may be Simon’s only hope of ending the conflict.
For the shadows of war are deepening across the Atlantik, and the prejudice of a fanatic faction is threatening to bring the battle right to Meg and Simon’s doorstep…
Anne Bishop’s new book is almost heeerrrreeeeee!!!! I cannot WAIT to get my hands on it! I’m so in love with this new world of hers, and book 3 promises to ratchet the tension up to a whole new level. I was so pumped when they up-ed this from a 3 to a 5 book series, but it means I have to wait that much longer for the finale. *tear slides slowly down cheek* lol, but aside from that, I see no downsides to this series. Everything she writes is so unique, and this Alternate-world fantasy is just the latest in a career of truly original work. Have I reached gushing territory yet? … No? Good. It’s just sooooo goooood! I love Meg and Simon and the way they are working to get to know and trust each other. Now, after the events of the finale of the second book, I’m so excited to see how things get even more complicated for them.
And with a final Fangirl, Squeeeeeeee! I’m done.

Thanks! She is my absolute favorite author, and I HIGHLY recommend any/all of her various series. This one is really excellent. The first book is called Written in Red. You should definitely check it out!

I have never read anything by this author before. I saw one of this authors adult series The Black Jewels in BN before but it was way to dark and gritty for me.

Ha, yeah, that series is quite dark, but for whatever reason it has become my all-time favorite! However, The Others series is a bit lighter and might be a better fit. All of her books have very real consequences though, and so I would still expect some grit if you decide to check it out!

Visions! I really cannot wait for this one either. It’s now a 5 book series?! That’s great news! I’m even more excited now.

Thank goodness for people like you who will jump into an in-progress series. You keep the author going until it’s done. Which is when I prefer to jump in. (Can’t stand the tension between books myself.) This sounds worth reading. When it’s done of course. 🙂
