"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week I'm waiting on...
Charming by Elliott James
Check out the description from Barnes & Noble:
"John Charming isn't your average Prince...
He comes from a line of Charmings -- an illustrious family of dragon slayers, witch-finders and killers dating back to before the fall of Rome. Trained by a modern day version of the Knights Templar, monster hunters who have updated their methods from chain mail and crossbows to Kevlar and shotguns, John Charming was one of the best--until a curse made him one of the abominations the Knights were sworn to hunt.That was a lifetime ago. Now, John tends bar under an assumed name in rural Virginia and leads a peaceful, quiet life. That is, until a vampire and a blonde walked into his bar..."
This looks like an interesting start to a series. I'm a big fan of mythology and always like to check out how myths are made new via fantasy/urban fantasy books. The whole knight turned into a monster character looks like it'll be an intriguing read.
I hadn't heard of this book but now I'm DEFINITELY adding it to my TBB list. Thanks for sharing!
