What Are You Waiting For?
It’s only days away to the release of THE SHADOW THRONE, and until then, every day I’m going to post a different quote from the book, just to get you excited (Because I am SO, SO excited!)
So if you loved THE FALSE PRINCE, but haven’t yet tried out Book 2, THE RUNAWAY KING, what are you waiting for? It’s just released in paperback, so if you’re buying, then the price is right. If it’s not in your library, ask them to get a copy. And if your friend just leaves it laying around the house, unguarded, then that’s their fault if you decide to go all Sage on them and “borrow it” for a while.
Actually, stealing is wrong. Borrowing…well, that’s in a gray zone.
Anyway, my point is there’s lots of ways to get a copy. If you get it now, you can have it read by the time THE SHADOW THRONE releases, and trust me, you’ll want to have that third book ready for when you finish THE RUNAWAY KING. Those who finished it months ago will already understand why.

Here are a few of my favorite quotes from THE RUNAWAY KING:
* * *
He put a finger to his face while he studied me. “You’re such a young king. I barely remember being your age.”
“Then clearly we’re talking about how old you are, not how young I am.”
* * *
Fixed on his eyes, I said, “Do you laugh at me?”
He was quite for a moment and finally the tension drained from him. “No, Jaron,” he said darkly. “I curse you with every breath I exhale. But I do not laugh.”
* * *
Then Lord Termouthe said, “Jaron, will you support this plan?”
I tapped my fingers on the armrest. “No.”
“Which part do you object to?” Gregor asked.
“The part where you began speaking.”
* * *
Despite the pain it caused, I leaned forward and in a soft whisper said, “There was something you failed to understand about me.” He tilted his head and in my strongest voice I added, “I never run!”
* * *
How about you? Any favorite quotes from Book 2 that you want to share?

Thanks, Lydia. I like that one too - he hates obvious questions and was in such a bad mood just then.
"You wouldn't want to be king of my country," I said."Why is that?"
"Well, you're rather fat. I doubt you'd fit onto my throne."
And one of my all-time favorites,
"I've heard his reputation," Devlin said. "Carthya won't fight for him."
"Yes, they will," Roden said firmly. "If he's the boy I knew at Farthenwood, then his people will follow him to the devil's lair and back."
AGH! I need Shadow Throne!
"How does it feel?" Fink asked.
