Waiting on Wednesday: The Sandman and the War of Dreams

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

The Sandman and the War of Dreams (The Guardians #4)
By William Joyce

Publication Date: October 1st

From Amazon:

When the Man in the Moon brought together the Guardians, he warned them that they would face some terrible evils as they strove to protect the children of earth. But nothing could have prepared them for this: Pitch has disappeared and taken Katherine with him. And now the Guardians are not only down one member, but a young girl is missing.

Fortunately, MiM knows just the man to join the team. Sanderson ManSnoozy—known in most circles as the Sandman—may be sleepy, but he’s also stalwart and clever and has a precocious ability to utilize sand in myriad ways. If the other Guardians can just convince Sandy that good can triumph evil, that good dreams can banish nightmares, they’ll have themselves quite a squad. But if they can’t…they might never see Katherine again.

I am, of course, eagerly waiting for this for a reason that's obvious to people who have seen my reviews: I've read the entire series so far and I absolutely love it.  My sister and I are both huge fans, in fact, and I'll be snatching up her copy as soon as she finishes reading it.

    1. It's actually what the movie Rise of the Guardians is based off, although RotG is a sequel to the book series rather than a movie version of it.
