Teaser Tuesday for May 10th 2011. "Skulls" by Tim Marquitz

Teaser Tuesday for May 10th 2011.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. http://shouldbereading.wordpress.com/2011/05/10/teaser-tuesdays-may-10/ Anyone can play along! Just do the following: Grab your current read Open to a random page Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!) Share the author and perhaps a link to the book so that folks can add it to their own TBR lists. Don't forget to pop over to the host site below. http://shouldbereading.wordpress.com/2011/05/10/teaser-tuesdays-may-10/ My Selection this week is from SKULLS a new book by Tim Marquitz. http://www.amazon.com/Skulls-ebook/dp/B004U7FOA0/ref=tmm_kin_title_0?ie=UTF8&m=A24IB90LPZJ0BS Teaser...From Page 1. "Jacob Rile looked into the face of death. Through a hundred eyes, death stared back. His heart thundered in his chest. He stood rigid as he faced the array of polished white skulls laid out before him. Shallow niches carved into the earthen walls cradled the skulls. Each was angled so their blackened sockets cast their sight upon the narrow entryway to the bunker. A slick sheen of sweat broke out on his brow and he wiped it away with a shaking hand. The dark eyes seemed to follow his movements as he shifted from foot to foot near the ladder, which led to the quiet forest above." Please excuse the formatting something has gone Kaput on my blogsite and i am trying to fix it as quickly as possible. Soooz.

  4. Hi Soooz,

    This format is great for those of us who have only just woken up and still have tired eyes.

    Some strong teaser lines from you this week and more than a little disturbing, especially having read the full synopsis.

    It has had some great reviews, so I hope that you enjoy it.

    I haven't read a real good horror book for some time, so I might just consider this one.

  8. What a scary setting! Great teaser :)

    Formatting can sometimes be such a pain in blogger, almost seems like it has a life on its own.
