Teaser Tuesday-April 27

Check out Teaser Tuesdays from Should Be Reading.  TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

Grab your current read.

Let the book fall open to a random page.

Share with us two “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page.

You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

This week my teaser is from Black Hills by Dan Simmons:
He could not have stopped the mare if he'd tried.  Her lathered sides were flowing with her own blood, and the boy realized that she'd been shot several times with rifle and pistol bullets and that there was an arrow sunk deep in her flesh just behind Paha Sapa's right leg.

Pg. 19

How awful! Why were they being shot at? This one has gotten some great reviews - hope you enjoy it. Good (but sad) teaser!
