Deadly Shores Quotes

“The oldest rule in the book is that you can delegate authority, but never responsibility—not even to higher authority.”
― Taylor Anderson, Deadly Shores

“A few Grik lunged at them, but the vast majority only wanted to get out of their way. These they left alone, conserving ammunition. It was a little disconcerting. They’d never seen so many “civilian” Grik before, and it was stunning how little fight they had in them.

“What a buncha pansies!” Silva panted, still having trouble with the heavy, wretched air. Three Grik had nearly fallen over themselves trying to clear his path when he menaced them with the Thompson. Its barrel was still smoking after a long burst he fired down a congested alley where another column of warriors was struggling to get at them. Those that followed fired into the writhing mass as well, the heavy booming of their rifles much louder than the stutter of the Thompson.

“Pansies!” Petey cawed. “Pansies! Ack! Goddamn!”
