AH: So excited to see Steel’s Edge on the list. I love the Ilona Andrews writing team. All of their books are auto-buy for me. If you dare, Tiffany Reisz’s third book in the Original Sinners series The Prince is worth the read. This series is for adult audiences only. Be prepared to be shocked and awed by Ms. Reisz’s incredibly complex characters. Thea Harrison’s The Elder Races series continues in Lord’s Fall. If you like your alpha males, this is a perfect series for you. New releases by Jim Butcher and Kevin Hearne tell me that I need to hurry up and catch up on those series.

CHRISTAL: Three of my “Go-To” authors have books coming out this month so of course they are at the top of the list. Steel’s Edge by Ilona Andrews will be the last of their Edge novels for now and, even though that makes me sad, I’m excited to see how they wrap the series up. Cold Days by Jim Butcher is sure to take the Dresden series in a new direction and I can’t wait to see how Harry deals with Queen Mab. Trapped by Kevin Hearne takes us twelve years into the future with Granuaile set to take her druidic rights. I’m very excited to see if everything goes as planned and if any real relationship has developed between her and Atticus — look for my ARC review soon. Deanna Raybourn revisits her Julia Grey series with a novella, Silent Night, and I will be cozying up with it as soon as it’s released. The wonderful Suzanne Johnson is releasing her second novel, River Road, and she was nice enough to send me an ARC. Look for my review soon to find out what DJ is up to after Hurricane Katrina! Two debuts look really promising as well, Black City by Elizabeth Richards and Renegade by J.A. Souders. Both are YA dystopias but have very different mythologies.

D.G.: I can’t believe that Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor is almost here! Daughter of Smoke and Bone was my first listen of 2012…and what a start of the year that was! So many questions were left unanswered that I’m sure I’ll be checking Audible every 5 minutes on the release day until I get my hands on it. And I’m sure to let you know my thoughts as soon as I’m done with it! I’m a big fan girl of the Iron Druid Chronicles so I’ve been waiting for Trapped by Kevin Hearne with baited breath. I really want to know about this new phase in Granuaile’s life and how that’ll that change her relationship with Atticus. I’m also very curious about Reached by Allyson Condie even though I was disappointed in book #2. I really want to know how it will all end! Two new series that caught my eye are Elemental by Antony John and Black City by Elizabeth Richards. Both are new to me authors but they definitely seem my cup of tea.
