Book Quote Wednesday & the word is TREAT. In Cursed Under London, Lazare knows only too well that he is the biggest treat of all. He just needs Fang to understand that and stop MOPING, who mopes about KISSING?? #BookSky #BookQW Buying links: farragobooks.com/book-series/...

Quote from Cursed Under London. Quote reads: ‘Just take what you came here for,’ he whispered, and leaned his mouth into Lazare’s just that whisper he needed for their lips to touch, ‘you only really want one thing. Stop trying to fool yourself that this is anything but – you’re not fooling me.’
Lazare pulled away, angrily.
Fang’s eyes still danced with desperation, pain and now humiliation and rage. ‘Again?’ He seethed.
‘I could ask the same of you,’ whispered Lazare. ‘Didn’t you say less than ten minutes ago you weren’t going to try it on again?’
Fang rolled onto his back, angrily. ‘What was wrong with it this time? I’m sober! You can’t tell yourself you’re just being gentlemanly around a drunk.’
‘I keep saying, I won’t sleep with you if you’re sad about it. Sleeping with me is a treat, and you should be duly delighted. You deserve a treat, Fang of Cathay.’

The Book Quote Wednesday word is KNEW. At the start of Cursed Under London, there's a lot that Lazare doesn't know, but one thing he DOES know is, he's definitely not a vampire, even though everyone thinks he is, and he just got fired for it. #BookSky #BookQW buy: farragobooks.com/book-series/...

Quote from Cursed Under London. Quote reads: ‘I’m not a vampire, Madame,’ Lazare replied, ensuring she could see his normal human teeth through his renewed smile.
‘Or whatever it is that you actually are,’ continued Lady Alice, smoothly, and Lazare had no answer to that. He knew that the one thing he very definitely was, was fired.
Lazare wasn’t a vampire. That much, he knew. To become a vampire, one must be turned by another vampire. It hadn’t been a vampire attack that had started Lazare’s recent troubles, but humdrum, run of the mill human muggers, with boring old cudgels and knives. Vampire attacks were actually very rare in Upper London, in spite of all the lurid rumours and whispers about their kind, and it was even rarer for a vampire to revive a dying human by turning them without their consent. No, none of this was a vampire’s doing. In fact, the only vampires that ever bothered Lazare even now were…
‘Sir? Good Sir? Excuse me?’
Lazare sighed inwardly, and painted his smile on for the approaching vampire.
‘I couldn’t help but notice that you appear to be afflicted, Sir.’

It's Book Quote Wednesday & the word is TREE. In the Cursed series, Fang's one fond memory of home is of time spent with someone under a peach tree there. Maybe if he can die, he can see it again. #BookSky #BookQW buying links farragobooks.com/book-series/...

Quote from Cursed Under London. Quote reads: Fang didn’t even think. His hands were already on Randall’s shoulder, his foot already on the ruffian’s thigh, he pushed himself up and vaulted over both Randall and Lazare’s shoulders, one leg curling back as he dropped down the other side of the two men to kick the stake out of Thomasina’s hands before landing.
He lashed out a foot. It hit nothing but thin air. He’d mistimed the kick.
Thomasina was still lunging, her eyes widened in alarm at the man who had just dropped down between her and her intended target.
Fang tried to make a last-ditch grab for the stake.
But it was too late.
There was a terrible, meaty sound of sharp wood entering flesh, and Thomasina’s face was right next to his, etched with shock.
‘Sorry,’ she mumbled. ‘That wasn’t meant for you.’
Everything was going dark, again.
Maybe, maybe this time he would die. Maybe someone was waiting for him. Underneath that peach tree, that big peach tree back home.

Book Quote Wednesday & the word is DRIP. Which, in Cursed Under London, gives me the chance to introduce you to Fang's horrible magic power. He has Reverse Glamour. He can make anything (but himself) look disgusting. Including the walls. #BookSky #BookQW Buying links farragobooks.com/book-series/...

Quote from Cursed Under London. Quote reads: Randall turned, his stake raised, away from Lazare and towards the stranger. ‘I enjoyed crushing you foreign muck into the filth last time. Cheers for coming back for an encore.’
The stranger tilted his head a little at Randall. ‘Filth, is it?’
Something off to Lazare’s side caught his eye. The wall of the narrow alley was wet with sewage, as if gong buckets were tipping out from every window above, all at the same time. He glanced at the other wall – it was doing the same. The filth was coming down thick and fast, a great unending torrent of it, slick, and dripping lumps. Lazare tried to pull his bags closer to himself and folded his wings even tighter than usual over his shoulders, to avoid touching the disgusting walls. The muggers noticed it too.
‘What the…’
‘Sloppy buckets time, Randall,’ noted Herbert.
‘But that’s at dawn,’ Randall muttered. ‘What’s going on?’ He turned to the stranger again. ‘Be this magic?’
‘No, this be poo-poo,’ Herbert explained. ‘Happens all the time.’
‘Herbert, look up. There’s no windows!’
Lazare looked up, along with Herbert. There were indeed no windows along either of the narrow alley walls. Filth was just streaming down it from nowhere.

It's Book Quote Wednesday and the word is APPEAR. In Cursed Under London, undead immortal Lazare & runt dragon Amber's search for Fang in Upper London is interrupted when two menacing humans appear in an alley. #BookSky #BookQW buying links: farragobooks.com/book-series/...

Quote from Cursed Under London. quote reads: Well, thought Lazare, at least the South Bank was pleasant enough in the day. And, once they got to the bridge, they’d be back in civilisation again. Yes, the shops and bars that crowded Blackfriars Bridge were touristy as anything, but it had to be an improvement on the alleyways where his person – and, more importantly, all of his stuff – were in peril. He could see the opening of the narrow alleyway ahead, and hurried to reach it, to embrace the relative safety of the bridge’s many ‘I Love Upper London’ Tankard stalls and Ye Emporium of New Worlde Sweetes, but just as the end was in reach, two shadows appeared at the opening.
‘Well, well, well,’ said one of the shadows.
‘Well, well, well, well,’ added the second shadow, like a menacing, mocking echo.
The shadows of the alley shifted, and suddenly their way was blocked by two figures.
‘What are you two doing on the Upperside?’ asked the first voice.
‘We’re allowed,’ said Amber, quietly.
‘This is our London, Sunshine,’ added the second voice, eyeing up Lazare’s wings. ‘Oop, sorry. Are you offended by the word “Sunshine”, Sunshine?’
‘I’m not a vampire, actually,’ Lazare said, as levelly as he could. ‘Upper London’s my home, just as it’s yours.’
