It's probably no surprise to you that the follow up to Danielle L. Jensen's Stolen Songbird is at the top of my list of books to try to get my hands on for this year's Fairy Tale Fortnight, considering that it was in my list of my five most anticipated 2015 releases. So obviously, when Danielle released the cover of the second book in the Malediction series, Hidden Huntress (yay!) on her website yesterday, I experienced a little thrill — a cover means it's one step closer, and you know I was all about that!
If I haven't already convinced you to give the first book, Stolen Songbird, a try, then allow me to take the opportunity to encourage you to do so, again. And also allow me to point out that as part of the cover reveal, there are a bunch of chances to win a copy of said first book, so you might want to visit that link you see above... But first, I give you:
Hidden Huntress by Danielle L. Jensen
Expected publication: June 2nd 2015 by Angry Robot
Sometimes, one must accomplish the impossible.
Beneath the mountain, the king’s reign of tyranny is absolute; the one troll with the capacity to challenge him is imprisoned for treason. Cécile has escaped the darkness of Trollus, but she learns all too quickly that she is not beyond the reach of the king’s power. Or his manipulation.
Recovered from her injuries, she now lives with her mother in Trianon and graces the opera stage every night. But by day she searches for the witch who has eluded the trolls for five hundred years. Whether she succeeds or fails, the costs to those she cares about will be high.
To find Anushka, she must delve into magic that is both dark and deadly. But the witch is a clever creature. And Cécile might not just be the hunter. She might also be the hunted…

Anyone else as eager as I am for this one?
Yes! Though I'm not crazy about the cover. Not sure why.
