Wednesday, October 6, 2010
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the SpineThis meme spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week my can't wait pre-publication is a sequel to one of my favorites reads this year Morpheus Road: the Light.  I  highly recommend if you have not already read D. J. MacHale's first book that October is a great time to do so because it is eerily scary and suspense filled, with a creepy villain and some marvelous characters.  That is way I am anxious to read the next book.



Author: D. J. MacHale
Publisher: Aladdin
Release Date: April 19, 2011

Cooper Foley always had a knack for finding trouble, but nothing he’s ever experienced could have prepared him for his latest adventure:  He has landed square in the middle of a border war between the worlds of the living and the dead.

At the end of The Light, Book One of the Morpheus Road trilogy, Marshall Seaver learned the truth about what happened to his missing best friend, Cooper.  Now, the mystery continues to unfold, only this time through Cooper’s eyes.

What did Marshall’s terrifying encounters with Gravedigger have to do with spirits from another existence?  Who is Damon, and what role did he play in Cooper’s dilemma?  Most importantly, what is the mysterious Morpheus Road? It’s time to learn, as bestselling author and master of thrilling suspense D.J. MacHale delivers another fast-paced, fantastical story that has all of existence hanging in the balance.
