"Smells of earth and dung drifted slowly past the fog in Errol’s brain. His skin prickled with cold. Water and ooze soaked his threadbare garments and he shivered. Cruk had thrown him out of the tavern. Again."A Cast of Stones by Patrick Carr
Don't you just love it when a book draws you in from the very first lines? That's what Patrick Carr did with A Cast of Stones and countless other authors have done as well. I had to know what on earth had just happened. So I read another line and another and another until he had me hook, line, and sinker.
What are some of your favorite first lines?
Blessings,
Laura
