I am so in love with this series. I am very sad that I have to wait until November to read this. I hope it's at BEA!

Annith has watched her gifted sisters at the convent come and go, carrying out their dark dealings in the name of St. Mortain, patiently awaiting her own turn to serve Death. But her worst fears are realized when she discovers she is being groomed by the abbess as a Seeress, to be forever sequestered in the rock and stone womb of the convent. Feeling sorely betrayed, Annith decides to strike out on her own.

She has spent her whole life training to be an assassin. Just because the convent has changed its mind doesn't mean she has.

  1. I cannot wait to have this book in my hands! I requested it on Edelweiss and refresh the page at least once a day waiting for that little blue question mark to turn into a green arrow! I hope you get it at BEA! *fingers crossed*

  15. Meanwhile, now that Elis has fendi outlet been fed, she decides it's time to go home. Her attempt to break out rolex submariner replica of their prison, however, backfires. While Elis has her powered suit, it's currently in "Mating Season" mode: since Catians gucci replica in their mating season do not make rational decisions, the suits are automatically set to replica belts reduce their powers during that period (quite logical, but unfortunate in its timing). So, they are stuck. The Cat Cultists prada replica have another trick up their sleeves, and they present a present to Elis: a copy of an Assistaroid, made using chanel outlet Earth technology. The combat maid who presents it assures Elis and Kio that it is a robot, and not someone in a suit. It would seem that the "Assistaroid" would lv outlet like to play with Elis, and so off they go to the ship's built-in amusement part (it's a REALLY big ship). While there, the "Assistaroid" takes Elis for a ride on the merry-go-round, while Kio watches. As he wanders over to some of the arcade games http://www.24jdc.us/information.asp, he notices that they are all single-player arcade machines. It seems that the girls made some sort of deal that they would appear in the movie in order to get on the set (and steal the boat). Unfortunately for them http://www.lakesideshopping.com/store1.html, the director, who is flaming with a capital F and only likes to use girls in his films, appears and asks them to put on their costumes for the movie shoot. They reluctantly rolex masterpiece watches agree to do so, but later run off with the boy, while in costume (their costumes are incredibly small bikinis: flattering on Manami, not so great for poor Aoi, whose charms are probably better played up with a different type of swimsuit). They've hijacked the boat louis vuitton outlet and head out, but the director, undaunted, plans to follow them and shoot the whole thing on film.
