Title: Pantomime

Summary:
R. H. Ragona’s Circus of Magic is the greatest circus of Ellada. Nestled among the glowing blue Penglass—remnants of a mysterious civilisation long gone—are wonders beyond the wildest imagination. It’s a place where anything seems possible, where if you close your eyes you can believe that the magic and knowledge of the vanished Chimaera is still there. It’s a place where anyone can hide.
Iphigenia Laurus, or Gene, the daughter of a noble family, is uncomfortable in corsets and crinoline, and prefers climbing trees to debutante balls. Micah Grey, a runaway living on the streets, joins the circus as an aerialist’s apprentice and soon becomes the circus’s rising star.
But Gene and Micah have balancing acts of their own to perform, and a secret in their blood that could unlock the mysteries of Ellada.

Why am I excited?
I've always been quite fascinated by the circus--I'm pretty sure I did another circus book WoW a couple weeks ago--and this one sounds awesome with the concept of chimaera! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some romance though ;)

I've seen Pantomime a few times lately. I'm not thrilled with the cover choice they ended up going with since I preferred some of the previous versions. The book itself sounds interesting, thanks for sharing! ^.^ If you would like to check out my Waiting On Wednesday you can do so here. :)
