Book Beginnings on Friday, February 17, 2012

Book Beginnings on Friday is a meme hosted by Katy from A Few More Pages. Anyone can participate; just share the opening sentence of your current read, making sure that you include the title and author so others know what you're reading.


The book I am reading is Quinten's Story by KS Augustin.  Quinton's Story is Science Fiction/Space Opera and is by one of my favorite authors.  Here is the beginning.


"The call was waiting for Quinten in the morning, bounced off his carefully constructed piggyback network of commercial feed point, scientific arrays and even - like a tongue childishly stuck out at the Republic - some military outposts.  He might be described by most people as grim but, underneath the scar tissue, Quinten had a sense of humor."

Hmm, intriguing....I need to read some science fiction this year for an "eclectic" reading challenge. This one has possibilities.

I'm assuming that's "figurative" scar tissue. Fascinating description.

Thanks for visiting my blog.
