Mag surged forward half a step, his eyes focused on the girl. "Hold your tongue, mortal, if you would keep it."
~ From Even Hand by Jim Butcher
Sounds like an entertaining collection.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I hadn't heard of this anthology before.
ReplyDeleteI guess that's one way of telling her to shut up. Been hearing a lot about this. It's now on my summer reading list.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I wonder who this non-mortal is and why he wants her to be quiet. And the cover is absolutely gorgeous! I love that kind of drawing style, which seems kind of rough but is yet really detailed! Thanks for hosting :)

ReplyDeleteThis is a really good 56.
ReplyDeleteIs this quote from a short story within the book I am guessing only from the cover. The cover is very intriguing.

ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this one before but it's a great collection of writers! I love the excerpt. It definitely makes me want to know more about the story.
