This week I'm patiently waiting on
Incarnation by Emma Cornwall, published by Gallery Books on September 18 2012. I first heard about this one back in May and as soon as I read the synopsis I was sold! I love the cover and I'm hoping the story will be just as good if not better.
"In the steampunk world of Victorian London, a beautiful vampire seeks out the author of Dracula – to
set the record straight . . . If one is to believe Bram Stoker’s
legendary vampire tale, Lucy Weston is Dracula’s most wanton creation, a
sexual creature of the night who preys on innocent boys. But the
real-life Lucy is nothing like her fictional counterpart — and she demands
to know why the Victorian author deliberately lied. With Stoker’s
reluctant help, she’s determined to track down the very fiend who
transformed her — from the sensual underworld where humans vie to become
vampires, to a hidden cell beneath a temple to madness, and finally into
the glittering Crystal Palace where death reigns supreme.
Haunted
by fragmentary memories of her lost life and love, Lucy must battle her
thirst for blood as she struggles to stop a catastrophic war that will
doom vampires and humans alike. Ultimately, she must make a choice that
illuminates for her — and for us — what it means to be human." - Goodreads
