"The building was on fire, and it wasn't my fault. My boots slipped and slid on the tile floor as I sprinted around a corner and toward the exit doors to the abandoned school building on the southwest edge of Chicagoland. Distant streetlights provided the only light in the dusty hall, and left huge swaths of blackness crouching in the old classroom doors." -Blood Rites by Jim Butcher

Well, that starts off a bit hilarious, but gets pretty creepy, fast! Must read more! What about you guys? Happy reading!
