Wishlist Wednesday: Magic Under Stone



Magic Under Stone by Jaclyn Dolamore
Fantasy, pages unknown
Expected publication: April 10th 2012 by Bloomsbury USA Children's Books
For star-crossed lovers Nimira and Erris, there can be no happily ever after until Erris is freed from the clockwork form in which his soul is trapped. And so they go in search of the sorcerer Ordorio Valdana, hoping he will know how to grant Erris real life again. When they learn that Valdana has mysteriously vanished, it's not long before Nimira decides to take matters into her own hands—and begins to study the sorcerer's spell books in secret. Yet even as she begins to understand the power and limitations of sorcery, it becomes clear that freeing Erris will bring danger—if not out-and-out war—as factions within the faerie world are prepared to stop at nothing to prevent him from regaining the throne.


Though it was by no means flawless, Jaclyn Dolamore's debut Magic Under Glass won me over swiftly and completely, and I have been waiting with baited breath to get back into Nimira and Erris' world.  Though I'll be sad to see Erris become a real boy (I love my little clockwork man!), I am eager to see what is in store for the young love birds.  I've been wiling away my time with Dolamore's companion novel, Between the Sea and Sky, but now it's time to bring on the Magic!  Well, erm...it will be time, in April...
