Waiting On Wednesday (4) The Immortal Rules

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted over at Breaking The Spine and gives us the chance to shine the spotlight on the books that we are extremely excited for.

This week, my pick is...
The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa
                                           
                               Expected publication: April 24th 2012 by Harlequin Teen


Summary From Goodreads:
In the dark days since the insidious Red Lung virus decimated the human population, vampires have risen to rule the crumbling cities and suburbs. Uncontested Princes hold sway over diminished ranks of humans: their "pets." In exchange for their labor, loyalty and of course, their blood, these pets are registered, given food and shelter, permitted to survive.    

Unregistered humans cling to fringes, scavenging for survival. Allison Sekemoto and her fellow Unregistereds are hunted, not only by vampires, but by rabids, the unholy result of Red Lung-infected vampires feeding on unwary humans. One night, Allie is attacked by a pack of rabids, saved by an unlikely hero...and turned vampire.

Uncomfortable in her undead skin, Allie falls in with a ragtag crew of humans seeking a cure, or cures: for Rabidism and for Vampirism. She's passing for human...for now. But the hunger is growing and will not be denied. Not for friendship—not even for love.


Why I can't wait: I absolutely LOVED Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey series, and I am excited  to see her spin on vampires.

  2. This sounds really interesting! I haven't read Kagawa's Iron Fey series, but I would love to check it out because I have only heard good things about it. I prefer Vampires to Fey though and so I must check this one out too!

    New to your blog, hope you can check out mine soon!
