TBR Thursdays is hosted by Kim @ Kimberly Faye Reads!

If you'd like to join, feel free to use the banner created by Kimberley (or your own), and stop by her page to participate.
This week's TBR Thursday choice is Scourge by Gail Z. Martin! I've had my eye on this new release for a while -- and then I won a copy in a giveaway! This just arrived in the mail the other day and I am really looking forward to reading it. I've been on a bit of a nonfiction kick, so I think this will be a great book to jump back into for fiction. Hopefully I get to it soon!
Synopsis from Goodreads:
The city-state of Ravenwood is wealthy, powerful, and corrupt. Merchant Princes and Guild Masters wager fortunes to outmaneuver League rivals for the king’s favor and advantageous trading terms. Lord Mayor Ellor Machison wields assassins, blood witches, and forbidden magic to assure that his powerful patrons get what they want, no matter the cost.
Corran, Rigan, and Kell Valmonde are Guild Undertakers, left to run their family’s business when guards murdered their father and monsters killed their mother. Their grave magic enables them to help souls pass to the After and banish vengeful spirits. Rigan’s magic is unusually strong and enables him to hear the confessions of the dead, the secrets that would otherwise be taken to the grave.
When the toll exacted by monsters and brutal guards hits close to home and ghosts expose the hidden sins of powerful men, Corran, Rigan and Kell become targets in a deadly game and face a choice: obey the Guild, or fight back and risk everything."
