Waiting on Wednesday: The Wheel of Osheim by Mark Lawrence.

Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.  Each Wednesday you get to highlight a book that your really looking forward to. This is week I’ve chosen The Wheel of Osheim (Red Queen’s War book 3) by Mark Lawrence.

All the horrors of Hell stand between Snorri Ver Snagason and the rescue of his family, if indeed the dead can be rescued.

For Jalan Kendeth getting back out alive and with Loki’s Key is all that matters. Loki’s creation can open any lock, any door, and it may also be the key to Jal’s fortune back in the living world.

Jal plans to return to the three Ws that have been the core of his idle and debauched life: wine, women, and wagering. Fate however has other, larger, plans…

The Wheel of Osheim is turning ever faster and it will crack the world unless it’s stopped. When the end of all things looms, and there’s nowhere to run, even the worst coward must find new answers.

Jal and Snorri face many dangers – from the corpse-hordes of the Dead King to the many mirrors of the Lady Blue; but in the end, fast or slow, the Wheel of Osheim will exert its power.

In the end it’s win or die.

The expected publication date is: June 2nd 2016.

I’m really looking forward to this book, Mark Lawrence is one of my favourite authors, he crafted what for me is one of the best trilogies in The Broken Empire with one of the most unique main characters in Jorg Ancrath and then went onto create The Red Queen’s War, this is the final book in the trilogy and after the climactic epic conclusion to The Liar’s Key I am eagerly awaiting this final instalment in what promises to be an epic book!
