Wish List Wednesday

Dark Triumph (His Fair Assassin, 2) by Robin LaFevers, April 2, 2013. Published by  Houghton Mifflin Books for Children.

When Sybella arrived at the doorstep of St Mortain half mad with grief and despair the convent were only too happy to offer her refuge - but at a price. The sisters of this convent serve Death, and with Sybella naturally skilled in both the arts of death and seduction, she could become one of their most dangerous weapons.

But her assassin's skills are little comfort when the convent returns her to the life that nearly drove her mad. Her father's rage and brutality are terrifying, and her brother's love is equally monstrous. But when Sybella discovers an unexpected ally she discovers that a daughter of Death may find something other than vengeance to live for...

Why: So, Robin Lafever's His Fair Assassin series is yet another one that I am woefully behind the times on starting. So far behind that I have only just now, like this past weekend, have read Grave Mercy. After finishing book one am in desperate need of book two. I just need to know the rest of the story and what will become of the characters.
