On My Wishlist (#80)



On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It’s where I list all the books I desperately want but haven’t actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming. It’s also an event that you can join in with too – Mr Linky is always at the ready for you to link your own ‘On My Wishlist’ post. If you want to know more click here.
I loved the first in this series, ‘The First Days‘, can’t wait to read the second!

Fighting to Survive (As the World Dies #2))
Rhiannon Frater (Tor)
Publication Date: Nov 2011

Genre: Horror, Urban Fantasy, Zombies
Summary:


Picking up where The First Days ends, Fighting to Survive features the further zombie-killing, civilization-saving adventures of a pair of sexy, kick butt heroines and the men who love them. A hundred or so survivors of the zombie plague have found tenuous safety in the walled off center of a small Texas town. Now the hard work of survival begins—finding enough food; creating safe, weather-resistant shelter; establishing laws; and fighting off both the undead who want to eat them and the living bandits who want to rob and kill them. (Goodreads)

I really like this authors work – they are fun reads.

A Demon Does it Better (Demons #2)
Linda Wisdom (Sourcebooks)
Publication Date: Jan 2012

Genre: Paranormal Romance
Summary:


Lovely witch Lili Carter takes a job at a paranormal hospital where patients have been disappearing. There she encounters Jared, a dangerously sexy demon on a mission that gets Lili into a world of trouble. Lili can’t avoid Jared for long and soon they find themselves creating a whole new kind of magick..

(Goodreads)

I’ve enjoyed this series so far – it’s a shame Orbit has dropped the author and the series…

Eat, Slay, Love (Living with the Dead #3)
Jesse Petersen (Orbit (US) | Simon & Schuster (UK))
Publication Date: Aug 2011

Genre: Urban Fantasy, Zombies
Summary:


Sarah and David have survived the zombie apocalypse. They stood side by side and fought the undead, mad scientists, and even bionic monsters until the unthinkable happened. A zombie bite. But not even that could stop them. Now, with a possible cure in hand, they’re headed east, looking for a safe zone behind the rumored “Wall.” They’re feeling pretty optimistic.

That is until Dave stops sleeping and starts lifting huge objects. Eat. Slay. Love.
Because they haven’t got a prayer. (Goodreads)

So, that’s what’s on my wishlist this week – what’s on yours?
