Memorable Quotes[]
"You and me, we're different, but we're the same. We both honor Winter Wolf. We both have weakness in our hearts that we'll never share with anybody, not even our nearest and dearest. We're both wolvers who are men who are really neither at all. But you? You're a diplomat. A long-limbed, pale-faced Nancy. The way you talk to spirits, it's like you're talking to a yappy dog, telling it to sit and stay and fetch. Me, I'm a neck-breaker. Hands like trash-can lids. Spirit gives me the stink-eye, and I'll pull him, apart like taffy. Sure, we're both Storm Lords. In that way, we're the same. But in all other ways, we're as different as blood and water." - Kieran the Killer (Back Cover)
