Today's snippet is from Impcatcher, which is now on sale on Amazon for the Kindle and in paperback, and DriveThru in pdf format. The general epub version is at Lulu.
A new section this week. Tal is returning home...
I had turned into Trollmarsh Street without really thinking
what I was doing. It was virtually dark, now. I would really appreciate it when
the new street lights were turned on. Some areas were black as Rorsdack's
heart.
I stopped short outside the cheap bakery on the corner. The
single illuminated light inside my shop shone through the cheap glass panes in
black lead that made up my window, and gave just enough light to reveal a
welcoming committee. Three men were standing outside the shop. Lurking, to use
the technical term. Lying in wait. Iron bars and a vicious looking piece of
wood with a long nail in it.
No, not three men. Two men and an orc. Gustav.
As always, comments welcomed!
A "welcoming committee"? At least he has time to escape if he wishes.
ReplyDeleteI see SFFSat is back to the two of us!
We'll just have to show everyone else what they're missing!
