This week I am waiting on
Once & Future by Amy Rose Capetta & Cori McCarthy
Publication Date: March 26th, 2019
Goodreads Summary
I’ve been chased my whole life. As a fugitive refugee in the territory controlled by the tyrannical Mercer corporation, I’ve always had to hide who I am. Until I found Excalibur.
Now I’m done hiding.
My name is Ari Helix. I have a magic sword, a cranky wizard, and a revolution to start.
When Ari crash-lands on Old Earth and pulls a magic sword from its ancient resting place, she is revealed to be the newest reincarnation of King Arthur. Then she meets Merlin, who has aged backward over the centuries into a teenager, and together they must break the curse that keeps Arthur coming back. Their quest? Defeat the cruel, oppressive government and bring peace and equality to all humankind.
No pressure.
I have never read a King Arthur retelling before, and I never would have imagined it in a sci-fi and fantasy setting. I am definitely intrigued and I can’t wait to see what sort of shenanigans Ari and teenage Merlin get up to.
What’s your most anticipated book?
I am so excited for this book!!!!! I just got the arc from a friend and can’t wait to dig into it. I love King Arthur and there isn’t a lot of retellings of this epic tale.
