Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
From Goodreads:
Having had no choice but to use her power has a necromancer to save Russia from dark forces, Katerina Alexandrovna, Duchess of Oldenburg, now wants to forget that she ever used her special powers. She’s about to set off to pursue her lifelong dream of attending medical school when she discovers that Russia’s arch nemesis–who she thought she’d destroyed–is still alive. So on imperial orders, Katerina remains at her old finishing school. She’ll be safe there, because the empress has cast a potent spell to protect it against the vampires and revenants who are bent on toppling the tsar and using Katerina for their own gains. But to Katerina’s horror, the spell unleashes a vengeful ghost within the school, a ghost more dangerous than any creature trying to get in.
I loved the first book in this series, The Gathering Storm, and I can’t wait for the next one. Expected publication date is October 9, 2012.

/ August 22, 2012Very nice pick! I wasn’t really interested in The Gathering Storm, but this looks really good. The cover is to die for. Thanks for sharing!
