Shadow Heir (Dark Swan #4) by Richelle Mead
320 pages
Bantam, to be released on December 27th 2011
#1 New York Times bestselling author Richelle Mead returns to the Otherworld, a mystic land inextricably linked to our own--and balanced precariously on one woman's desperate courage...
Shaman-for-hire Eugenie Markham strives to keep the mortal realm safe from trespassing entities. But as the Thorn Land's prophecy-haunted queen, there's no refuge for her and her soon-to-be-born-children when a mysterious blight begins to devastate the Otherworld...
The spell-driven source of the blight isn't the only challenge to Eugenie's instincts. Fairy king Dorian is sacrificing everything to help, but Eugenie can't trust the synergy drawing them back together. The uneasy truce between her and her shape shifter ex-lover Kiyo is endangered by secrets he can't--or won't--reveal. And as a formidable force rises to also threaten the human world, Eugenie must use her own cursed fate as a weapon--and risk the ultimate sacrifice...

Spoiler alert for Iron Crowned guys ;)
Ohh I can't wait for this book to come out!! The end of Iron Crowned was just awful. I mean what the hell? Jerk, idiot, I hate him! But then again I was always team Dorian, so I was in a way actually happy, that she finally understand Kiyo is an idiot! :P But still!! HOW COULD HE?! His own kids?! Bastard.
And honestly? I was actually so sad that the babys weren't Dorians. He wanted kids so much. And he would make a way better dady :P Ok, ok he said he will addopt them, but still I wish they were his. And for Eugenie to finally understand that Dorian IS the one :D
I am super extra excited because Richelle posted the first chapter of the book a couple of days ago. It was her birthday and she tought to give us a present! How nice is that!! :) And it's great!! You can find it here.
This is the last book of the serie, and I hope the end will be ok :) Aaaa can't wait!!
And you? What are you waiting this Wednesday? :)
