queensthiefOne of the moments in the books that actually sent shivers running down my spine was in QoA:
"She gestured for the guard to pull the boat in. Out of the corner of her eye she saw him drop obediently to one knee and reach over the water. The hook in place of his missing right hand thunked quietly into the wooden hull."
Brrrrrrrr!
And as I reread THE THIEF, every time I came across a mention of Gen's right hand - more chills. But that was in retrospect, of course, whereas the boat moment wasn't.
How 'bout the rest of you? Any chilling moments?
