Last night I had the pleasure of seeing Anathema live in the final show of their Australian Tour. A great night out but a late one and at my age – yes I am playing the old man card 🙂 – it takes a bit to bounce back from such things.
But I digress. I know you didn’t visit my blog to read about my taste in music, so without any further ado I have another 8 sentences from Revenant to share with you. As always, these carry on immediately from last week so if you want to see what has come before then just follow this link.

“Only a short corridor before—” A series of loud clangs above them caused Ryan to look up. His eyes widened and he tackled Marcus through the elevator doors just as something dark and heavy crashed to the ground where they’d been standing.
“Thanks,” Marcus said as he climbed back to his feet. “I guess my parting gift did more damage than I thought.”
Ryan peered through the cloud of dust to examine the object that nearly crushed them. “This had nothing to do with you.” Despite the impact damage, the pile of twisted metal was still recognisable as a desk. “That was thrown down here deliberately.”
I hope you’ve enjoyed my contribution to this week’s list, and thanks for stopping by. Click on the image below to see all the wonderful writers who are taking part in this weekly event.
Oy! Risky, risky place when desks get thrown at you. 🙂
Goran, I chuckled when I read “…playing the old man card .” Too funny!
Nice action, very intriguing. Enjoyed the snippet.

Uh oh, sounds like the revenants are developing a plan…love this serial.
Ooh, this is a great snippet. That last line makes me wonder if the zombies aren’t so brain-dead after all 🙂 Now smart zombies is something to really be afraid of!
Sounds like a new element has been added..
Wuff. That can’t be good. Great snippet, Goran. 🙂
