This week my teaser lines come from Patricia McKillip's 2009 fantasy novel, The Bell at Sealey Head. This quote comes from pg.11:
"Among my eccentricities is the pursuit of things mysterious, otherworldly, magical. There is magic in this place. I want to find it."I haven't actually started reading this one yet, so I'm not sure what's going on here, or who's pursuing the mysterious, otherworldly and magical. This time of year I usually like to read a little fantasy. Springtime just seems to be the perfect setting for that. And this book has been on my TBR list for quite a while now — so I'm thinking of pulling it out and finally reading it.
And how about you? Do you ever read fantasy? Interested in the mysterious, otherworldly and magical? Or do you prefer that your bookish adventures stay a little closer to the real world?

Ooh, sounds like fun, and what a spectacular cover.

I don't often read fantasy, but I love the cover and excerpt. And the author's name...I once had the surname of McKillip...(second husband, and two of my kids). LOL.

Fantasy isn't my favourite genre but this does sound intriguing. Here's the link to my intro/teaser for today: http://wp.me/p4DMf0-1wi
ReplyDeleteI love fantasy. I've never thought about it before, but you're right--spring time is a great time for fantasies!
