Wicked Saints
by Emily A. Duncan
Fantasy
Expected Publication: April 2, 2019, by Wednesday Books

From Goodreads: A girl who can speak to gods must save her people without destroying herself.

A prince in danger must decide who to trust.

A boy with a monstrous secret waits in the wings.

Together, they must assassinate the king and stop the war.

In a centuries-long war where beauty and brutality meet, their three paths entwine in a shadowy world of spilled blood and mysterious saints, where a forbidden romance threatens to tip the scales between dark and light. Wicked Saints is the thrilling start to Emily A. Duncan’s devastatingly Gothic Something Dark and Holy trilogy.

I’ve seen this talked up on a couple of blogs and YouTube channels and the buzz has been positive so far. I just hope that the hype doesn’t overwhelm the book and make me not want to read it, because it sounds like it could be great.
