OMG.
I didn't know it! If I hadn't been checking my amazon recommendations I probably would have been behind the moon once the book was out.
There will be a fourth book of Lynn Flewelling's "Nightrunner" series. It'll be called "Shadows Return" and will be released on June 24th!! I am clearly excited about it. For years I wanted to know how the story of Alec and Seregil would go on. I just hope she won't mess them up (again) or something. I just love the characters way too much.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
6. Tag five people. Everybody who wants to... :)
"Insurance companies don't just keep livestock DNA on file, my frined," Brian said.
"I didn't tell you to look through human DNA," Creek said.
"I know," Brian said. "But isn't that why you wanted the intelligent agent that was actually intelligent? To find stuff you didn't already think of?

"Sie sagt: "Das ist doch nur Apollo."
Nicht weit von dem Mann, fast ganz bedeckt von gefallenem Laub, liegt eine Leiche. Eine blasse weiße Brust mit feinen blauen Adern. Ein abgetrennter weißer Arm."
Ich glaub das sind 4 Zeilen *lach*

Date: 2008-03-02 12:09 pm (UTC)*g* Das muss ich glaube ich etwas breiter erklären. Ich hab ne Tradition, wenn ich im Urlaub bin; ich lese für ein paar Tage nichts Anstrengendes. Mein Ma hat sich daran erinnert und kauft mir an der Ostsee immer diese "Schundromane", die wo man schon am Cover sieht worum es geht (als Harlequin Novels). So ein Ding liegt jetzt auf meinem Nachtschrank (Titel: Verzaubertes Verlangen").
