Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat.
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!
This is my choice of the day:
Judged – Book 3 of The Blackhart Legacy by Liz de Jager
13% ‘Bro, it’s a mess.’ One boy shakes his head. He’s got eyeliner smeared under his eyes and too much glitter down the side of this face. He leans against a girl, her arms wrapped around his waist. Looking at the group, I realize they all look shell-shocked. ‘We got here about an hour before the police showed up. Everything was going so well and we were all just partying hard.’
BLURB
Kit’s job description includes solving crimes – the supernatural kind . . .
Glow, a fae-created drug, is rapidly going viral and the suppliers have to be shut down. Teaming up with Aiden and Dante, Kit follows leads across London, tracking down dealers. They stir up trouble, making themselves a target for the gang they’re trying to stop.
In the Otherwhere, Thorn stumbles across a secret that could destroy both the human and Fae worlds. The Veil that separates our human world from the fae realms is weakening and the goddess is dying. And if she dies and the Veil fails, madness and chaos will wreak unstoppable havoc upon both lands.
As you can see, it’s early days, but I really enjoyed the first two books in this series – Banished and Vowed. Right now Kit is on the ropes after the devastating outcome in Vowed, but I’m just beginning to see her get her mojo back as the pace is picking up and she is becoming involved in this investigation to get to the bottom of who is handing out quantities of illegal and highly addictive drug Glow at clubs, raves, universities and schools. Yes – it’s great to be once more immersed in de Jagar goodness…
Interesting teaser, not sure it’s a book for me but I hope you enjoy it.😀
No… don’t think this one is for you, either, Drew:). Thank you for swinging by, though!
Sounds like quite the genre mashup. I’m intrigued!
Mine this week is a steampunk series: https://wp.me/p3Nz8P-15T
This one is fairly firmly in the urban fantasy camp with a well defined fae community alongside. It is definitely intriguing, though:).
Great teaser and I’m glad you’re enjoying. Sounds like my kind of read but I will not add any more books to the TBR…ok well maybe 🙂
Lol… I SO know how that feels! If you are looking for more urban fantasy goodness with class and distinctiveness, then this one ticks the boxes.
This looks interesting. I’ve been thinking about the world of fairy and the rules of that world a lot lately. And I’ve been looking for books to read about that world, so I’m glad you posted this one.
I really like de Jagar’s fae world. There’s a real sense of difference and those stranded with divided loyalties have a hard time of it.
Hope you are enjoying it…not my kind of read, but it sounds as though it’s suspenseful. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Thank you Laurel:). Yes, it’s a real page-turner.
It’s a good premise.
It’s a really enjoyable series:).
So glad to hear you are enjoying this series so much – I like the teaser but I’m not keen on supernatural elements in books.
And it would be a boring old world if we all liked the same things, wouldn’t it? Thank you for swinging by, Cleo:)
I like the quote, but I haven’t read anything by this author. I believe is fantasy, right?
Yes, urban fantasy set in the UK. I’m not sure she’s written anything else other than this series, so far.
