Teaser Tuesday #4 - Conflict of Honors

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, avoid Spoilers.

My Teaser is from the contest in my post from yesterday. I was intrigued enough when I signed up for the contest that I read the first 9 chapters that available for free online from Baen publishers.
Teaser Tuesday is from Conflict of Honors by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller:

"Left me, she thought through the fog of dizziness and pain. And then, with a gasp that sent knifing fire down her side, the reality hit her. Left me! Here, with the door locked and no way out and how could they have left me? Surely the Trader would have missed me . . . or if not me—but how could they not have missed me! Tailly, Nik Laz, Bern . . . how could they have left. . .
She took a deep, deliberate breath, ignoring the pain.
"I will not," she informed the room austerely, "sanction hysterics."


This book reminded me of the space operas by Lois McMaster Bujold, Eric Flint. I can see how it fits into the Baen stable of books/authors. Surprised I hadn't given the books a try earlier!
Drop a line as you stop by!
Pin It!

  4. I've never read anything by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller before but I have been intending to do so, along with some of Lois McMaster Bujold's scifi books (I've only read her fantasy so far). I hope you enjoy this one.
