"Laura’s writing is so beautiful and visually descriptive that the reader will lose themselves in this book, blurring the lines between fantasy and reality."

Skeptic

Quote of the day:

Chapter 9. Heights

“I’ve heard a lot about you,” he said out of nowhere. His deep eyes looked sideways at me.
“Oh yeah? And what’s that?”
“You’re a skeptic. That your job is to find the supernatural.” He cocked his head to see my expression. “I heard it is almost impossible to fool you.”


Here is a passage of Shadow of the Sun:

Chapter 15: Dreams

"Flowing auburn hair glittered against the sun like molten copper. A knife tucked securely into a holster around a leg. Glacial blue eyes turned toward me over a perfect shoulder, staring, cautioning me. Her body was that of a goddess. Tattoos covered every last inch of her skin which were intricately woven in a pattern that seemed to never have a beginning or an end. Her face was that of an angel. She turned away from me, her short white dress billowing in the wind. It was so thin, silk-like, that you could see through it. Her tattoos went beyond her arms and legs, but continued snaking up her back to circle around to form two arrows crossed together."
