“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: Hunted (The Voices #2) by G.X. Todd. I read and loved Defender (the first book in the Voices series) and can’t wait to get to this one. Due for publication 31st May 2018.
Hunted by G X Todd is second in the Voices series, highlighted as being ‘of a piece with Stephen King’s The Stand‘ in the Independent. The battle between Good and Evil continues to play out in a world where the Voice in your head can save or slaughter you. A must-read for fans of Neil Gaiman and Joe Hill.
The birds are flying. The birds are flocking. The birds know where to find her.
One man is driven by a Voice that isn’t his. It’s killing his sanity and wrestling with it over and over like a jackal with a bone. He has one goal.
To find the girl with a Voice like his own. She has no one to defend her now. The hunt is on.
But in an Inn by the sea, a boy with no tongue and no Voice gathers his warriors. Albus must find Lacey … before the Other does. And finish the work his sister, Ruby began.
Hunted is the second book in the highly acclaimed Voices series, where the battle between Good and Evil rages on. And on.
Books and travelling with Lynn 
This sounds amazing! How did I miss the first book in this series? I need to check out Defender right now😁
I hope this one is as good as the first.
Lynn 😀
Ooh, it sounds so good and intriguing! Enjoy it when you get to it. 🙂
I hope it fulfils its promise. The first was very good.
Lynn 😀
A comparison with King’s “The Stand” is more than enough to make me pay attention!
Thank you so much for spotlighting this one! 🙂
No problem. I enjoyed the first and I’m really looking forward to the next one although how good the comparison to King is I couldn’t say as I haven’t read The Stand. For shame.
Lynn :
Any book that gets listed as for fans of Joe Hill gets my attention 🙂
The first was good – I’m really looking forward to continuing.
Lynn 😀
I’ve not seen this before but I really need t look into that series!
I enjoyed the first book and I’m really looking forward to this one.
Lynn 😀
I think I recall your review of the first book and how much you enjoyed it. I hope the sequel meets your expectations! 😀
I hope so too. I’m excited to read this one.
Lynn 😀
I love the sound of this one – and for some reason I missed out on the first book in the series. Thank you for sharing it…
The first was really good so I’m looking forward to this one very much.
Lynn 😀
Oh wow- nice cover. That one gets your attention! I love the idea of the birds knowing where to find her. 🙂
It seems as though the birds are going to add a new element to the next book – a bit creepy, puts me in mind DuMaurier – although I haven’t read it yet of course.
Lynn 😀
I get so frustrated when I see something likened to Stephen King’s The Stand, because I can be super interested in a book, see that, and all my interest instantly deflates. Gah! LOL.
I remember eyeballing the first book in this series but couldn’t bring myself to actually get it.
Is that because you didn’t like The Stand then. Or you liked it so much that comparisons annoy you? I’m not really into the whole comparison ‘thing’ but I haven’t read The Stand so it didn’t really hold any sway over my decision to pick the book up
Lynn 😄
I didn’t like The Stand. I didn’t even like the movie adaptation that much, and that’s rare for me. Because while I’m not a big fan of Kings books (attention span isn’t up to his unhurried way of telling a story) I tend to love most of the movies made from his books.
