The Paladin Prophecy Teaser

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

*Grab your current read.

*Let the book fall open to a random page.

*Share with us “teaser” sentences from that page.

*You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

The Paladin Prophecy by Mark Frost

"Will had long ago learned how to cork his emotions deep inside, showing nothing but a bland mask to his peers.

#46: IF STRANGERS KNOW WHAT YOU'RE FEELING YOU GIVE THEM THE ADVANTAGE.

Will was the tall rangy kid who always sat near the back, slumping to minimize his height, never making waves. The way he dressed, the way he spoke, the way he moved through life: quiet, contained, invisible. Exactly the way his parents had taught him.

#3: DON'T DRAW ATTENTION TO YOURSELF.

But a pounding bass line of worry still pulsed in his chest: RUN, WILL. DON'T STOP. Could the timing of Dad's text--at the moment the black car spotted him--be a coincidence?

#27: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS COINCIDENCE."

(pg. 16-17 ARC)

So far, this is one great book. I can't wait until September, so I can start handing this one out to all the teens at the library where I work!
