Released Snippets

Shaking her head in a mute refusal to accept what he was trying to tell her, she whispered, "What have you done?"

"Too much that can never be undone."

Her fingers curled into her hands as she watched him, the fluidity and grace of his body doing nothing to mask the fact that the beautiful movements could quickly turn lethal. It was hypnotic, the way he moved, the flex and release of his muscles compelling on a visceral level, until she found herself leaning against the French doors, her palms spread on the glass.

ok, who of our guys would have french doors and does train outside?

I thought it really sounds like another changeling...cat or wolf...
but it could also be a Psy....

right, you're right

Sounds like Kaleb and Sahara to me

Kaleb has a balcony in the house that's not his in Moscow, so he would also have french doors.

French doors do not sound changeling like

yeah, Kaleb and Sahara...that would be great

Today's snippet (from Nalini's Facebook page):

Yes." The confession felt as intimate as what he'd just done to her body. "With you."

His expression altered to a hardness that made it clear who and what he was, his arms coming down on either side of her as he lowered his face until their breaths kissed. "It will," he said in a silken whisper, "only ever be with me."

sounds like a changeling male to me, but Judd sounds very changeling like in his possessiveness at times...

That was great! I am sure the book will be great as well, but if the male lead turns out to be a changeling after all this mystery and lead-up, I will be really disappointed. It's not that I don't love the changelings, but there seems to be no reason for all the concealment for a changeling character we already know (I am assuming it's very unlikely that Ms. Singh would introduce unknown characters as leads at this point.)

But the snippets are really neat, I am glad they are being released. I can just enjoy them where before I felt let down by a big reveal countdown. Honestly, I would have just enjoyed the cover and blurb reveals if I wasn't majorly disappointed by false expectations. I really thought we would get character names or something, so I forced myself to stop dwelling on it for a bit. These snippets are a great way to get back into a happy, excited wait for the book.

FIRST REVIEW OUT HAS REVEALED WHO THE MAIN MALE CHARACTER IS!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

As predicted, boo that after the first two chapters we still don't know who or what the heroine is although I'm going with the predictable answer yet again

from Nalini's blog post today:

Yay, Vasic's in this book too

I wondered if that was who it was referring to, thanks for confirming. It will neat to get a fuller picture of the Psy rebellion and this new world.

yay another arrows snipet
