2 " That was the one moment he would always remember. The unhappiest moment of a happy childhood. The empty desolation of being on the wrong side of that sheet of ice, in the cold sterile water, while the fire burnt at the farm and the smell of Christmas food seeped out of the kitchen. And above him always the criss-crossed pattern of his own skates. "
― Jim Kelly , The Water Clock (Philip Dryden, #1)
3 " The cellar, uncorked like a buried bottle, gave off the stale breath of the years. "
― Jim Kelly , The Skeleton Man (Philip Dryden, #5)
4 " He leant back to stare heavenwards, gently fingering the swollen skin around his black eye. But the river stank. Reduced by the heat like a good soup, it was sixty per cent ducks' piss with a hint of incontinent rat. "
― Jim Kelly , The Fire Baby (Philip Dryden, #2)
