Six Sentence Sunday – The Boat

Good Sunday to all! 🙂 Today I continue where I left off last week, with my novel Rex Rising.

The man appeared at the right periphery of Elei’s tainted vision — a splash of red. He went still when Elei cocked the hammer. The click rang too loud in the quiet.

“Calm down, will you,” the man said, raising his hands. “Just checking on you. You’re bleeding all over my boat.”

I am pleased to say that Rex Rising has started to sell.:)

Blurb: In a world where parasites create new human races, Elei leads a peaceful life as aircar driver — until a mysterious attack on his boss sends him fleeing with a bullet in his side and the fleet at his heels. Pursued for a secret he does not possess, he has but one thought: to stay alive. Yet unless he finds out this deadly secret, he’s a dead man.

I’m very curious about the tainted vision and what happened that has an injury bleeding all over the boat.

Totally intrigued by this one. Putting it on the TBR list.

I am very, very interested in knowing more about what is going on here!

Find the phrasing ‘tainted vision’ intriguing. A lot of tension in these last two snippets. If I hadn’t already bought the book, they would have made me buy it. 😉

sorry I’m late, brain fried by heat…
congrats on the sales! 🙂 As soon as my bro fixes my Kindle wi-fi, I’ll get it too… tired of PDFs! 😉
