This week, I'm waiting on:
Flame of Sevenwaters by Juliet Marillier
Release date: November 6, 2012
Description from Goodreads:
Maeve, daughter of Lord Sean of Sevenwaters, was badly burned as a child and carries the legacy of that fire in her crippled hands. After ten years she’s returning home as a courageous, forthright woman with a special gift for taming difficult animals. But while her body’s scars have healed, her spirit remains fragile, as she fears the shadows of her past.
Sevenwaters is in turmoil. The fey prince Mac Dara has become desperate to see his only son, who is married to Maeve’s sister, return to the Otherworld. To force Lord Sean’s hand, Mac Dara has caused a party of innocent travelers on the Sevenwaters border to vanish.
When Maeve finds one of the missing travelers murdered in the woods, she and her brother Finbar embark on a journey that may bring about the end of Mac Dara’s reign — or lead to a hideous death. But if she is successful, Maeve may open a door to a future she has not dared to believe possible...

I was disappointed by Seer of Sevenwaters but I think this book sounds really promising. I think I will like Maeve as a heroine more than I liked Sibeal anyway.
I haven't heard of this book.

I did not realize there was another one of these books due; since I still haven't read the first, I won't be picking this up for a long time anyway.
