HERE, I just wanted to highlight a few of the titles that has me really excited:

The Last Wish” by Andrzej Sapkowski. Release Date: May 1, 2008. “Geralt de Rivia is a witcher. A cunning sorcerer. A merciless assassin. And a cold-blooded killer. His sole purpose: to destroy the monsters that plague the world. But not everything monstrous-looking is evil and not everything fair is good…and in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth…” The international hit that inspired the video game: The Witcher and has been receiving a bunch of great reviews around the blogosphere is coming to the US for the first time…

Midnight Never Come” by Marie Brennan. Release Date: June 9, 2008. England flourishes under the hand of its Virgin Queen Elizabeth, Gloriana, last and most powerful of the Tudor monarchs. But a great light casts a great shadow. In hidden catacombs beneath London, a second Queen holds court: Invidiana, ruler of faerie England—a dark mirror to the glory above… “A breathtaking novel of intrigue & betrayal set in Elizabethan England; Midnight Never Come seamlessly weaves together history and the fantastic to dazzling effect.”
