Waiting on Wednesday (WOW) January 4, 2012

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


I am waiting on a book that has been out a long time.  It is the January book for our Science Fiction Book Club.  


The book is Lord of Light by Roger Zelanzy.  None of his books are available as ebooks and there was not a copy available in either of my libraries.  I ordered it used two days ago and am hoping it get here in time to read before the meeting on January 11.  


Earth is long since dead. On a colony planet, a band of men has gained control of technology, made themselves immortal, and now rule their world as the gods of the Hindu pantheon. Only one dares oppose them: he who was once Siddhartha and is now Mahasamatman. Binder of Demons, Lord of Light.

Looked this up on Amazon. The synopsis was really short, but it has a lot of great reviews. Hope you enjoy it!

Nothing like classic fantasy. You have a very cool book club.
