Heir to the Sky by Amanda Sun
Releases: April 26th 2016
As heir to a kingdom of
floating continents, Kali has spent her life bound by limits—by her
duties as a member of the royal family; by a forced betrothal to the son
of a nobleman; and by the edge of the only world she’s ever known—a
small island hovering above a monster-ridden earth, long since
uninhabited by humans. She is the Eternal Flame of Hope for what’s left
of mankind, the wick and the wax burning in service for her people, and
for their revered Phoenix, whose magic keeps them aloft.
When Kali falls off the edge of her kingdom and miraculously survives, she is shocked to discover there are still humans on the earth. Determined to get home, Kali entrusts a rugged monster-hunter named Griffin to guide her across a world overrun by chimera, storm dragons, basilisks, and other terrifying beasts. But the more time she spends on earth, the more dark truths she begins to uncover about her home in the sky, and the more resolute she is to start burning for herself.

Thoughts:
Boy does this book sound good. I enjoyed her novel Ink when I read it, but Heir to the Sun sounds even better. I love novels that mix different civilizations and can't wait to meet Kali and Griffan!
What do you think of Heir to the Sun? Is it something you want to read?
And what are YOU waiting on this week?
