It’s Science Fiction Fantasy Saturday time again! As you may recall, SFFS is a ring of authors who share some of their work each Saturday. Anyone is welcome. The idea is to feature a snippet of your work for others to enjoy.
This week, Bo has met up with her uncle and gone into the VIP lounge to find and contact Tennova.

“I haven’t seen the man I’m supposed to meet with, yet,” he said quietly, sliding his data reader across the table.
Glancing down, Bo studied the angular face of the man they were looking for. She quickly hid her relief – not her dark-haired champion.
“He’s young,” she commented.
“Yeah, he’s about your age, but don’t let that fool you. He’s some kind of boy genius. He’s got schematics for a phase weapon that he says can rip a hole in space.”
It took all of Bo’s self-control not to react to that information. Instead, she forced a smile and switched off the data reader.
“Tell me about him.”

Gotta Name My Blog 
I’d rather hear about this weapon that rips holes in space…but that’s my geeky self. 😛
Great little snippet. Enjoyed it!
Funny you should mention that… Blade wants to know more about it, too.
A weapon that does WHAT?! Rip a hole in… Okay, that’s it! I don’t care what Bo wants to do. That boy’s plans are magically disappearing! We don’t need that kind of firepower in our (or anyone else’s) arsenal.
How does it work?
So you see the dilemma. It can’t fall into the wrong hands. As for how it works, I’m not allowed to say too much here. 🙂
Sounds like a bright – but dangerous – lad. Fab snippet!
Thank you! He is indeed bright, handsome, charming, and very, very dangerous. Bo doesn’t realize HOW dangerous… yet.
Ahh, and he’s young, just her age? Intriguing guy.
And quite gallant!
Wow, I likey that weapon! Yeh, so…how does it work?
Gonna have to read the book. Sorry!
Sweet weapon!
Depends who’s holding it, right?
Can I have one of those? I promise not to break anything important.
Ummmm… no.
Something like a black hole? Scary sounding weapon.
Something like.
Dangerous weapon. Are there better even more dangerous weapons on the horizon. Geniuses are always making improvements on their original designs. I love a smart man, so I’m drooling right now. I can’t wait to read more and see what’s in the works for these two characters.
Great dialogue! Thanks for sharing!
Better, more dangerous weapons… You could say so. Some infinitely more personal, that’s for sure!
Great snippet! Sounds like an interesting book 🙂
Thanks! I hope other people enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
And the plot thickens. Great snippet.
Dah-dah-DAAAAAH!!!! Gotta love a thickening plot, eh?
Sooo, is she interested in the weapon herself?
Only to pay the ransom on her father.
