Waiting on Wednesday #143

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking The Spine where you can spotlight an upcoming release that you're eagerly anticipating.

This week I'm waiting on.....
 
Shadow Run by AdriAnne Strickland & Michael Miller
Releases on: March 21st 2017

"Firefly" meets DUNE in this action-packed sci-fi adventure about a close-knit, found family of a crew navigating a galaxy of political intrigue and resource-driven power games.

Nev has just joined the crew of the starship Kaitan Heritage as the cargo loader. His captain, Qole, is the youngest-ever person to command her own ship, but she brooks no argument from her crew of orphans, fugitives, and con men. Nev can’t resist her, even if her ship is an antique.

As for Nev, he’s a prince, in hiding on the ship. He believes Qole holds the key to changing galactic civilization, and when her cooperation proves difficult to obtain, Nev resolves to get her to his home planet by any means necessary.

But before they know it, a rival royal family is after Qole too, and they’re more interested in stealing her abilities than in keeping her alive.

Nev’s mission to manipulate Qole becomes one to save her, and to survive, she’ll have to trust her would-be kidnapper. He may be royalty, but Qole is discovering a deep reservoir of power—and stars have mercy on whoever tries to hurt her ship or her crew.


Thoughts:
Shadow Run sounds like a really promising sci-fi! A few of my fave YA sci-fi  series/trilogies have ended recently, so I'm on the lookout for the next one to fall in love with. This book looks like it could be exactly what I need to fill the void. Plus, it releases on my brothers birthday--that's got to me a good omen, right??

What do you think of Shadow Run? Do you want to read it?
And what are YOU waiting on this week?
