Teaser Tuesday - A Memory of Light, by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just:
* Grab your current read
* Open to a random page
* Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
* BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
* Share the title and author, too, so that other Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their To Be Read (TBR) Lists if they like your teasers!

----------

The Last Battle still rages, as men fight against the minions of the Dark One.  Demandred, one of the Forsaken, continuously rakes the battlefield with weaves of Power, killing hundreds, and calling for Rand to come face him in a duel.  But Rand is far away, locked in his own duel, and Galad steps forward to duel with Demandred, hoping to buy time and respite for his fellow warriors.  But a duel against a powerful Forsaken might be impossible to win...

The Tease:
"The sword glanced off the side of the armor, but cut true otherwise. 
As Galad whipped back around, Demandred was limping.  The Forsaken grimaced. 
"You've blooded me," he said.  "It has been a very long time since someone did that.""
 -The Wheel of Time, Book 14: A Memory of Light,
by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson

  2. I have never read The Wheel of Time series but it does sound like a great high fantasy. Check out my teasers for Mila 2.0 by Debra Driza and Rage Against the Dying by Becky Masterman. Happy reading!

  3. Intriguing. I'd like to know more about these two characters.
    My Teaser is from THE MONDAY NIGHT NEEDLEWORK & MURDER GUILD.
