Here we are again. Another Wednesday, another new book to get excited over.
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Tressa @ Wishful Endings (and was previously hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine where it was known as Waiting on Wednesday) to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. They’re usually books that have not yet been released.
This week’s book is:
A Far Better Thing by H.G. Parry! 🗝️🪄
(So, like, this actually came out yesterday, but I was busy this week and I’m not interested in any other books coming out in June. So yeah.)
A Far Better Thing by H.G. Parry
LENGTH: 416 pages
GENRES: Fantasy, Fiction
PUBLISHER: Tor Books
RELEASE DATE: 17 June 2025
BOOK DESCRIPTION:
I feared this was the best of times; I hoped it could not get any worse.
The faeries stole Sydney Carton as a child, and made him a mortal servant of the Faery Realm. Now, he has a rare opportunity for revenge against the fae and Charles Darnay, the changeling left in his stead.
It will take magic and cunning—cold iron and Realm silver – to hide his intentions from humans and fae and bring his plans to fruition.
Shuttling between London and Paris during the Reign of Terror, generations of violence-begetting-violence lead him to a heartbreaking choice in the shadow of the guillotine.
Are you interested in A Far Better Thing? What other books have come out lately that you’ve enjoyed or are looking forward to?
As always, thank you all so much for reading and have a fantastic day/night!
See ya ~Mar
