Teaser Tuesday (04-06-10 edition)

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• 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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Today's Teaser:

The stars began to fade in the darkness, to the point where he could no longer look directly at them; only the larger planets held the light. If only he could jump from his bed onto one of those planets where people didn't torment each other. Could there be such a place?

-- Hunter by Campbell Jefferys (page 26)
