Teaser Tuesdays - February 24, 2015

This post may contain affiliate links. 

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. To play along, just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page
• Be careful not to include spoilers!
• Share the title and author, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers!

~The Princess Bride by William Goldman, page 317

He had yet to see an unarmed genius outduel an idiot with a pistol. He'd rather stand with half a dozen fighters who could swing a sword and weren't smart enough to know the odds than two dozen Lund Landers who could make a clock out of chicken bones and clothespins.
~The Legend of the Firefish by George Bryan Polivka, page 158
