Favorite Quote Friday #30

Happy Friday!  I hope you all had a great week!  I don't know what the weather is like where you are, but it has been HOT here.  Whew!  It wouldn't surprise me at all if we hit the century mark before the end of May.


Just a quick reminder:  Today is the last day of the Spring Fling Blog Hop!  You can enter here for a chance to win a signed copy of Night Reigns + Immortal Guardians swag.


Since I'm giving away a copy of Night Reigns in the aforementioned contest, I thought for this week's Favorite Quote Friday segment I would post a narrative quote from it in which Marcus, the hero, lands himself in a very dangerous position:

Feet dangling a foot or so above the ground, Marcus clutched the wrist of the arm that effortlessly held him suspended like a marionette. His eyes widened as a low rumbling sound swelled around them. Birds fled to the sky. The branches of nearby trees began to jerk and sway, their leaves rustling like maracas as the ground shook with earthquake-like tremors.  

Okay. I . . . might have underestimated the seriousness of this situation.

:-)  Poor Marcus.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Dianne

      Thanks, rubyswan! I envy you your chilly weather. It's been so hot here that our grass is already beginning to die where the sun is baking it. :-)

      Hi, Peggy! Send me some of that cool weather! It was 88 degrees in the shade the other day. And that was AFTER the sun started to go down. :-)

      Snow? *wistful sigh* I would love to see some snow around here. At least we've been getting a lot more rain this year. The drought was so bad last year half of my plants died. :-(

      I hope you're enjoying the sun! :-)
