Waiting on Wednesday: Fragile Spirits by Mary Lindsey


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

This week’s can’t wait to read selection is
Fragile Spirits by Mary Lindsey.
Publication Date: January 23rd 2014

Fragile Spirits - Philomel
Paul has always known he was a Protector, fated to serve a Speaker who could hear the voices of spirits lingering after death and help those souls find peace.

Vivienne ignores the voices of the dead.

Paul has always followed the Protector’s rule book, preparing diligently for the day when he’d be matched with his Speaker and fulfill his destiny.

Vivienne never does what she’s told.

So when Paul is matched with Vivienne, they both find the pairing less than satisfactory. But a kidnapping, a malevolent spirit and power stronger than both of them may just prove that they are two halves of the same whole.
Synopsis from goodreads.com

When it comes to series, I'm torn between wanting to delve back into the world I know - including the characters already presented (and loved) - or reading about totally new characters set in the same universe. Both ways can work well and I can't decide, which I prefer. I really liked Lenzi and Alden of Shattered Souls and would have loved to read about them again. However, the synopsis for the sequel Fragile Spirits promises interesting new characters, especially feisty Vivienne, lots of suspense and maybe a love story. 

Do you prefer changing characters in a series or rather keep the known ones? Share your opinion in the comments along with your waiting on choice.

I really liked Shattered Souls. I would have preferred a straight sequel, but I'm still happy to see more from Mary.
