“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that was originally created by Breaking the Spine. Unfortunately Breaking the Spine are no longer hosting so I’m now linking my posts up to Wishful Endings Can’t Wait Wednesday. Don’t forget to stop over, link up and check out what books everyone else is waiting for. If you want to take part, basically, every Wednesday, we highlight a book that we’re really looking forward to. This week my book is : Owl and the Tiger Thieves (The Adventures of Owl #4) by Kristi Charish. This is a great series and the last one was my favourite so far – it also left me desperate to find out what happens next.
Owl—a modern-day Indiana Jane—handles supernatural monsters, temperamental dragons, and slippery ninjas as she races to stop a brewing supernatural war in this fourth novel in the Owl series.
The Silk Road was an ancient trade route paved with fortunes and tears in equal measure—the tears part mostly due to the distinct chance of being gutted by an opportunistic supernatural lying in wait.
Somewhere among the trade cities lost to the ages, the Tiger Thieves—assassins who once guarded the Silk Road against the supernatural monsters that preyed on ancient caravans—still hide.
Shame no one has seen one of them in over five hundred years, since they’re the only ones who might be able to help Owl stop the reign of the Electric Samurai and the descent of the world into supernatural chaos in all its eviscerating glory.
From a Peruvian jail to Venice to Timbuktu, Owl searches for the Tiger Thieves in the hopes of convincing them to help her—all while fetching artifacts and weapons for Mr. Kurosawa’s brewing supernatural war. Considering diplomatic negotiations aren’t exactly Owl’s strong suit, she has her work cut out for her. Not to mention, her sidekick on this adventure leaves a lot to be desired and little to trust.
Poking a tiger is never a good idea, and tangling with the ancient assassins will take everything Owl has. Eventually, she’ll have to decide whether she’s a wayward archaeologist or just another cold-hearted thief.

Wow, I’ve never heard of this author of a series before but it sounds awesome! Thanks for the great post 😄💞
It’s a fun adventure series with lots of fantasy elements thrown in. Very entertaining.

That’s cool🤗
Thanks. 😀
You’re welcome Lynn 💟
This sounds like a great adventure. Have fun when you get to it.
Thanks 😀
I am SO behind with this series. On another note, I am crushed because I just saw that the release date for Kristi’s next book in her Kincaid Strange series has been pushed to 2019!!☹
She’s obviously a busy little bee!
Lynn 😀
I still need to read the latest one, which I hope to sometime this winter during my catch-up months. Then I can join you in looking forward to this book 🙂
Yes, when you read the last one I think you will definitely want to get your hands on No.4!
Lynn 😀
This one sounds great fun, Lynn – thank you for sharing:)
It’s a series I’m really enjoying and I can’t wait for the fourth – the third ends in a rather critical way!
Lynn 😀
Ah… one of those!
Ouuuh, this sounds like fun. And if you’ve enjoyed the previous books, I can only imagine great things for this one too! 🙂
This is a series that has definitely grown with each successive book and so has my need to get my hands on this newest one.
Lynn 😀
