“Haverness, I need to ride with you,” said Garranon hoarsely. “If I stay here longer, I’ll slit Jakoven’s throat myself – which fool act would do Oranstone no good at all.”

P240 –Moving Pictures – Terry Pratchett

So I am still reading Orcs by Stan Nichols, but what I didn't realize at first is that this is actually 3 books in one (I think). So I am on the 3rd "book"

p503

The elder races shouldn't be fighting amongst themselves. It's the humans we have to stand against.

I will confess I bought this book solely because of the cover.

Orcs by Stan Nicholls

Pg 41--The kobold’s head leapt from its shoulders, flew to the side and hit the trail bouncing. Sitting upright, a fountain of blood gushing from its stump, the corpse was carried past by the uncontrolled kirgizil.

I just started the book this morning (don't you raise an eyebrow at me, I did not just start the book so I could play).

The book is The True Story of Hansel and Gretel A novel of war and survival.

And the winner of my teaser search is.....p 102

"He lead them deeper into the trees through snow that was so soft he sometimes turned and picked up the girl, and the boy clung to his back. He could feel the faster beat of her heart through his coat. "

GOOD GOD I couldn't have planned that better if I tried. Now THAT is Hansel and Gretel.
