 I am waiting on:

Title: Soundless

Author: Richelle Mead

Publisher: Razorbill

Publication Date: November 10, 2015
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy, 

From Richelle Mead, the #1 internationally bestselling author of Vampire Academy and Bloodlines, comes a breathtaking new fantasy steeped in Chinese folklore.
For as long as Fei can remember, there has been no sound in her village, where rocky terrain and frequent avalanches prevent residents from self-sustaining. Fei and her people are at the mercy of a zipline that carries food up the treacherous cliffs from Beiguo, a mysterious faraway kingdom.
When villagers begin to lose their sight, deliveries from the zipline shrink and many go hungry. Fei’s home, the people she loves, and her entire existence is plunged into crisis, under threat of darkness and starvation.
But soon Fei is awoken in the night by a searing noise, and sound becomes her weapon.
Richelle Mead takes readers on a triumphant journey from the peak of Fei’s jagged mountain village to the valley of Beiugo, where a startling truth and an unlikely romance will change her life forever...

Why am I waiting?

I really have never read any book even close to this synopsis, but if Richelle Mead is writing it, I am defiantly going to give it a try. I like the idea of sound being a weapon, and I am curious to see how Fei's story unfolds. Maybe stepping outside my normal comfort zone, will open me up to a whole new world.

What are you waiting on?
