Waiting on Wednesday – Time Siege by Wesley Chu
Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Breaking the Spine to let us share our excitement for books coming out soon.
After loving the Tao series, I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about a complete change or world for Chu’s books, but turns out I loved the first in this series as well and very anxious to get back to it!
Title: Time Siege
Author: Wesley Chu
Expected publication: July 12th 2016
Publisher: Tor
Having been haunted by the past and enslaved by the present, James Griffin-Mars is taking control of the future.
Earth is a toxic, sparsely inhabited wastelandthe perfect hiding place for a fugitive exchronman to hide from the authorities.
James has allies, scientists he rescued from previous centuries: Elise Kim, who believes she can renew Earth, given time; Grace Priestly, the venerated inventor of time travel herself; Levin, James’s mentor and former pursuer, now disgraced; and the Elfreth, a population of downtrodden humans who want desperately to believe that James and his friends will heal their ailing home world.
James also has enemies. They include the full military might of benighted solar system ruled by corporate greed and a desperate fear of what James will do next. At the forefront of their efforts to stop him is Kuo, the ruthless security head, who wants James’s head on a pike and will stop at nothing to obtain it.
Me too! Super excited. I’m a Chu fan for life after reading the Tao books, and I loved Time Salvager almost as much. Great choice!

This would be a completely new author and series for me, but it sounds interesting.
