Why I'm Waiting...
Ever since I first picked up 'The Name of the Star', the first book in the series, I've been waiting for the next books like a drowning girl reaching for a floating log. I'm not even sure why, but this series is something I've always loved. One reason could be because it was my first book featuring Jack the Ripper (who is AWESOME by the way, if a bit creepy and murderous), but also because of Stephen, who I shipped with Rory from the very beginning. And then with what happened at the end of book two...well, this book can't be released fast enough! I really wish I didn't have to wait another year to find out what happens to Stephan, but it's not like I can bribe the author to give me an early copy. Right?
