Wishlist Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Dani over @Pen to Paper and is a great way of showing off the books that we are dying to get our hands on :)

 'Til the World Ends - Julie Kagawa, Ann Aguiree and Karen Duvall


Dawn of Eden by Julie Kagawa
Before The Immortal Rules, there was the Red Lung, a relentless virus determined to take out all in its path. For Kylie, the miracle of her survival is also her burden-as a doctor at one of the clinics for the infected, she is forced to witness endless suffering. What's worse, strange things are happening to the remains of the dead, and by the time she befriends Ben Archer, she's beginning to wonder if a global pandemic is the least of her problems....

Thistle & Thorne by Ann Aguirre
After a catastrophic spill turns the country into a vast chemical wasteland, those who could afford it retreated to fortresses, self-contained communities run by powerful corporations. But for Mari Thistle, life on the outside-in the Red Zone-is a constant struggle. To protect her family, Mari teams up with the mysterious Thorne Goodman. Together, they'll face an evil plot in both the underworld of the Red Zone and the society inside the fortresses that could destroy those on the outside...for good.

Sun Storm by Karen Duvall  
Sarah Daggot has been chasing storms since she was a child. But after the biggest solar flares in history nearly destroy the planet, she becomes a Kinetic, endowed by her exposure to extreme radiation with the power to sense coming storms-in the cosmos and beyond. And she's not the only one. Sarah believes the Kinetics are destined to join forces and halt the final onslaught of the sun. She'll vow to keep trying to convince the one missing link in their chain of defense, the enigmatic Ian Matthews, up until the world ends.

I have wanted this book since hearing about it a few months ago. I really want it now but it is just a bit pricey on the Book Depository right now. I'm excited to read the Julie Kagawa short story as I loved The Immortal Rules. Also I don't think I need to say for the 100th time how much I love dystopian books so really looking forward to the other two short stories too. I'm not really a short story kind of person but I'm really excited for Kagawa's story. I need this book in my life now!

    This has some fantastic authors in it, and I love Julie Kagawa and apocalyptic stories- but I hate short stories!
    I still want to know what you think of it though- so I hope you can get hold of soon!

    I have yet to read The Immortal Rules, too- I it's on my Kindle already, but I haven't touched it. I did read Aguirre's Enclave last fall, but was not exactly fond of it :) I hope you get to read and like this one, though - also because I think short stories in general can be really fun!
