1 " If you haven't guessed yet, my family is made up of ultra-nerds. This is not necessarily a bad thing. We play games like Scrabble and watch documentaries together.

6 " Out ahead of them, Arkady began something very like a marching song, chanting lines answered by the other ferals, their voices ringing out across the sky, each to each. Temeraire added his own to the chorus, and little Iskierka began to scrabble at his neck, demanding, " What are they saying? What does it mean?" " We are flying home," Temeraire said, translating. " We are all flying home. "
7 " (My proudest moment as a child was the time I beat my uncle Pierre at Scrabble with the seven-letter word FARTING.) "
8 " Quote taken from Chapter 1:I know what." Isabel reached under the end table, took out the game board, and rattled the Band-Aid box containing the letter tiles. " It's been a week-and-a-half since our last Scrabble game. "
