Teaser Tuesdays - Midnight

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 - 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 one (book 2 in the Dark Age Dawning Trilogy) just came in the mail today and I'm really looking forward to read this as I loved Nightfall, the first book in this Trilogy. I bumped this one right to the top of my To-be-read list.

While Jameson was thin and quiet, he had a scary affinity for knives - and that meant nobody would question her choice. He was the child of a Filipina mother and an American GI, and when his dad died, leaving them destitute, he'd battled his way to some renown and joined an underground fight circuit.
