lofted him along several yards for each step.Read other great Sci-fi and Fanatsy snippets HERE!

Always such intriguing worlds and characters, Melissa!
ReplyDeleteYay! Birdmen! Love it. Looking forward to more. Good luck with the August release (exciting!).
ReplyDeleteOhh...what an interesting set up. Birdman, unfamiliar weapons...I'm hooked!
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering what happened to Arla. I want more!
ReplyDeleteYou know, pointing an unfamiliar weapon, when you're not sure of what fires it or even which is the working end, isn't all that good an idea.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff. Makes you want to find out more, for certain.
ReplyDeleteI love the world--a bird man with teal eyes sounds very cute!
ReplyDeleteBird man? Interesting. A bit different from an angel (which I thought he was to begin with). :)
ReplyDeleteOoh! I love a good bird man!Sounds like a great read! Looking forward to it!
