Teaser Tuesday July 24, 2012

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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 title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers.

My teaser this week is from Intruder by C.J. Cherryh.  Intruder book 13 in the Foreigner series.  This is not a series I would recommend anyone read out of order.  It is Science Fiction so if that is your love give this series a try but start with Foreigner, the first book in the series.  The books are set up as trilogies so there are 4 completed trilogies and if the patten continues Intruder is the first book in the 5th trilogy.  The Ateva's would love this because of the numbers. 


Here is my teaser.  It is from page 316, almost the end of the book but it gives nothing away.


"Playing poker with an ateva was calculated suicide, but he did win now and again in moments when Geigi's attention, for his own reason, lapsed off into the event bearing down on them."
