Waiting on Wednesday: Empress of a Thousand Skies

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly post hosted by Breaking the Spine.

Each week bloggers participate to share a book they can't wait to get their hands on.

This week I'm waiting on:

Empress of a Thousand Skies by Rhoda Belleza

Preorder Buy Link: Amazon

Empress
Rhee, better known as Crown Princess Rhiannon Ta’an, is the sole surviving heir to a powerful dynasty. She’ll stop at nothing to avenge her family and claim her throne.

Fugitive
Aly has risen above his war refugee origins to find fame as the dashing star of a holo-vision show. But when he’s falsely accused of killing Rhee, he's forced to prove his innocence to save his reputation – and his life.

Madman
With planets on the brink of war, Rhee and Aly are thrown together to confront a ruthless evil that threatens the fate of the entire galaxy.

Rhoda Belleza crafts a powerful saga of vengeance, warfare, and the true meaning of legacy in her exhilarating debut, perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer and Pierce Brown.

When written well, I do enjoy the occasional young adult Science Fiction story. It has to have some romance, and it can't be all sci-fi details, but I'm interested to see more with this one.
What are you waiting on this week?
