That ship’s voice really has a personality.
Wow, wonder what it is?
Well that’s fascinating. I feel as if I should know what they’re talking about, yet I don’t. Terrific snippet to get a reader hooked on the story!
You’ve got me wondering what the hell it is, what it looks like, what it’s gonna do…all in those eight little sentences. Nice job!
An intriguing eight there.
