#Giveaway! Book Trailer Reveal RUSH by EVE SILVER @Eve_Silver

June 7, 2013 By Mary

There’s a flash of light, blindingly bright. Colored haloes obscure my vision. They dance and flicker and then disappear, leaving only a rectangle of light boxed in by the dark doorframe.

I see then that the door’s gone and in front of me are people. No…they aren’t people. They have limbs, hair, faces, but they aren’t human. After the first glance, they don’t look even remotely human. They’re pure, painful white, so bright they throw off a glare. They look like they’ve been dipped in glass, smooth and polished, but fluid. And their eyes…they’re a silvery color, like the mercury in the antique thermometer that my mom used to have at the side of the front porch.
When I was ten, I knocked that thermometer off with my wooden kendo sword, shattering the glass. The little blobs of mercury went all over the porch. I was a kid. I didn’t know better. I touched them, prodding the little balls until they joined the bigger blob. My mom swooped down on me and snatched me away, telling me it was poison. It could kill me.
I stare at the things in front of me: the Drau. I can’t look away.
Somewhere in the back of my mind, I remember Jackson talking about Medusa.
Don’t look at their eyes.
Their mercury eyes.
They’re poison.
They will kill me.

    I’ve seen this book featured a few places and it looks fantastic! And I have to say, after the little excerpt, I’m definitely curious as to what all is going on (it seems like a lot).

    Love the trailer’s track (sounds like E.S. Posthumus/Les Friction went all dubsteppy) and the mercury blobs that form the lettering reminds me of the mimetic poly-alloy T-1000 in T2, all of which connotes all kinds of awesomeness for me. Looking forward to reading RUSH. Thanks for offering this giveaway!
