What are you waiting for?

So, with this series we're looking at what makes a book work, both in the book itself and in the promoting of the book. Last Monday I posted covers that rocked, and why I liked them. Today I'm looking at killer intros. Join in, tell me what you think. The ones below worked for me, do they work for you? Why or why not? What's your favorite opening? Does an opening have to be “hook-y”, or can you live with a slower build? - "Fate was a bitch with a sick penchant for cold cocking men at the zenith of their careers. Brandon Carlyle didn’t think too highly of Fate. Or of Destiny either, for that matter. Neither was he inclined to believe the old adage when God slammed one door, He opened another. When God slam-dunked Brandon’s life and career in the toilet, He had not opened another door. He’d simply flushed. And kept flushing every chance He got." ~Katherine Sutcliffe (what book, someone please tell me what book! I found the quote in a writing article but now I really want that book!) “The moment the door opened I knew an ass-kicking was inevitable. Whether I'd be giving it or receiving it was still a bit of a mystery.” ~Rachel Vincent, Stray New!
