"I feel the stars. Energy pulses against my skin, murmuring secrets about this small galaxy, about orbits and alignments and asteroids streaming in space. Impulse makes me want to dive and cruise those currents, but I control these urges. I shift my attention to the flutters of life within my skin. Marko glows orange with crimson streaks. He is warm, always the easiest to find. Just now, he stands and stares at the blue-green orb swirling below us. I cannot swim down to see what he remembers of this place. The planet's gravitational pull would break my bones. But he shows me flashes: smiling faces, a field of flowers, an old woman with eyes like slices of sky." -Honor Among Thieves by Rachel Caine and Ann Aguirre
Yeah, this opening is so intriguing and amazing, and I just love this book so much! What about you guys? Happy reading!
