Teaser Tuesday

Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Should be Reading:

  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
  • Please avoid spoilers!


I am actually kind of in between reads at the moment. I finished the book I was reading in bed last night, and my train book this afternoon, so this teaser comes from the book that I am planning to start in the morning - Victory of Eagles by Naomi Novik (page 222):

He nodded to the colonel of the regiment, and himself turned and walked over to the dragons, to make a show of speaking with Rowley. No-one spoke, and the men filed in perfect order - with something even of a hurry - abourd the beasts: the rest of the army had been roused up to see if happen, and the dragons lifting off with the soldiers all aboard: with only a little prodding from the sergeants, the men aboard all jeered cheerfully at teh regiments marching below as the dragons sailed away.

  4. I really enjoy this whole series Kim. It is fantasy but it is very close to historical so it isn't as out there as some other fantasy is.
