I love Wednesdays, because that’s the day I get to spotlight the books I’m super excited to read! Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine. This week I’m thrilled to share this book with you:
The Deaths of Tao by Wesley Chu. Release date: October 29 2013 (Angry Robot). I absolutely loved The Lives of Tao (you can read my review here) and I am grateful that Angry Robot doesn’t wait a year or more to publish sequels. I’m so excited to read more about the adventures of Tao and Roen, and I’m hoping to get an ARC from the publisher soon:) Here’s the description from Goodreads:
The Prophus and the Genjix are at war. For centuries they have sought a way off-planet, guiding humanity’s social and technological development to the stage where space travel is possible. The end is now in sight, and both factions have plans to leave the Earth, but the Genjix method will mean the destruction of the human race.
That’s a price they’re willing to pay.
It’s up to Roen and Tao to save the world. Oh, dear…

I highly recommend this series, so make sure to check out The Lives of Tao first. What are you waiting on this week? Link me up!
I’ve never seen this one before! But oooo, bows and arrows and daggers and SWORDS! 😀
Hope you get to read this one sometime soon, Tammy!
Check out my WoW post!
See I really enjoyed the first one – but I don’t feel COMPELLED to read the second one. Does that sound strange?
Yeah, I do understand. Maybe one book in that world with those characters was enough.
I will read the second one though haha. Wes was too cool of a dude not to. I’m super excited to see more from him as far as other worlds go too.
So lucky you got to meet him…I’m doing an interview with him soon.
The Deaths of Tao compel you! Or me. Whatever works. =)
