Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. The idea is to give everyone a look inside the book you’re reading.
Play along: Grab your current read; Open to a random page; Share two teaser sentences from that page; Share the title and author so that other participants know what you’re reading.
My teaser this week is from The Burning Times: A Novel of Medieval France by Jeanne Kalogridis.
“They moved steadily down out of the hills, the English, more than five thousand men, all told: lancers, foot soldiers, the much-dreaded archers with their bows the height of a man. Dark locusts spilling out in irregular swarms, they had been on the march for months and no longer bothered with the precise lines of formal battle; nor did they need to.” (256)
What are you teasing us with this week?

I have really enjoyed Jeanne Kalogridis’s books before, particularly The Borgia Bride! Haven’t read this one though.
My teaser is here this week.
I have The Borgia Bride on my list to read. I’m slowly making my way through all her books.
Ah, the eternal battle between the English and the French. Archers, man, they’re deadly. I hope you enjoy this!
