Waiting on Wednesday: The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson

The Girl of Fire and Thorns (Published by Greenwillow Books, September 20, 2011)

Once every century, one person is chosen for greatness. But the prophecy is vague, and Elisa, always overshadowed by her accomplished older sister, has no idea why she was chosen or how she will fulfill the expectations. Her future is unknown and her potential is tremendous—even if she doesn’t realize it. A king asks her to save his troubled country. A savage enemy hunts her for its own—dead or alive. A revolutionary asks for her heart. And in the midst of ferocious battles and harsh quests, Elisa will find herself. She will find the strength she’s always possessed. She’ll find deep and abiding love. She’ll awaken the power that only she can control. And she’ll face those who want to rip all of it away. Lush, adventurous, and wrenching, this is the first in a trilogy for fans of Kristin Cashore’s Graceling and Tamora Pierce’s Tortall books.


Yay for more YA high fantasy! I *love* the genre but there have been so few books in recent years. So I am very excited that this book is the first in a trilogy.
