Can't Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at http://www.wishfulendings.com/ to spotlight and discuss books we're excited about but haven't read, which may not even be released yet.

This week-Orlando A Sanchez
He’s not the hero you want. He’s the monster you need.
When a new strain of the deadly drug, Redrum creates UV resistant vampires, the streets of New York City are flooded with the mindless creatures searching for blood—human blood. The NYTF and Dark Council refuse to deal with menace and contact the Night Wardens expecting results. What they get is a dark mage with nothing to lose.
Now Grey Stryder-a dying dark mage and rogue Night Warden must join Koda, a short tempered, trigger-happy assassin to clean the streets of New York, find the source of Redrum, and keep humanity off the menu, before it’s too late.
Together they will be become the heroes the city needs-but no one wants.
I've already bought the first book in the Tombyards and Butterflies series so this was certainly on my radar, even though I haven't read the author yet. It came out on January 8th so I'll grab it or a sample at some point.
It certainly looks interesting - I love the premise and hope you enjoy the book:)
ReplyDeleteI like the look of this one!
DeleteWow, what a cover. This does sound good and I like the idea of UV resistant vamps - even if I did think immediately of Blade.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in the story but that ass kicking cover really sealed the deal!
DeleteThis sounds great! I've never heard about this author before so I'll have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteI already have one series by the author which I hope to read soon and this one sounds good too!
DeleteOK, the drug is named 'Redrum'? LOL LOL
ReplyDeleteShades of Stephen King and Shining!
Yeah that was my first thought too! Heeerree'ss Johnny!
DeleteThose two look ready for battle! I hope you love it.
ReplyDeleteI do have high hopes for this!
DeleteDamn, but that looks good - and the blurb lives up to the cover too. On my watch list it goes . . .
ReplyDeleteIt does look very promising doesn't it!
Deletelove the tag line! Of course we all need monsters! Heroes are boring :) ;-P
ReplyDeleteYes monsters are fun!
DeleteIF resistant vamires?! Yes, please! Great pick.
