Ascendant by Diana Peterfreund
Release Date: September 28th 2010
Synopsis from Goodreads:
Now a fully trained unicorn hunter, Astrid Llewelyn is learning that she can’t solve all her problems with a bow and arrow. Her boyfriend has left Rome, the Cloisters is in dire financial straits, her best friend’s powers are mysteriously disintegrating, and her hope of becoming a scientist seems to be nothing but an impossible dream.
So when she’s given the opportunity to leave the Cloisters and use her skills as part of a scientific quest to discover the Remedy, Astrid leaps at the chance. Finally, she can have exactly what she wants—or can she? At Gordian headquarters deep in France, Astrid begins to question everything she had believed: her love for Giovanni, her loyalty to the Cloisters, and—most of all—her duty as a hunter. Should Astrid be saving the world from killer unicorns or saving unicorns from the world?

I loved, loved, loved Rampant, and I cannot wait for this to come out! I thought that it was fitting to do it now since the final cover was just released. Isn't it a great cover? I love it! I can't wait to see the lightened paperback version of Rampant! Eek, I'm so excited!
