"At night, through whispered words and feathery caresses, Ruby and Thork spun webs of love, unspoken on his part, that drew them closer and closer together." pg 351 ('unspoken on his part!?!?')
"Ruby gasped. The exquisite pleasure of the hot melding of their two bodies caused shudders to ripple across her skin like the fluttering of a million birds' wings." pg. 365 (Sandra Hill has a thing for feathers, I guess)
"With her soft word, Thork lost control and plummeted her with his deeply felt, unspoken emotions." pg. 366 There is no word close to 'plummeted' which could replace it that would make this sentence make any sense. Believe me, I've tried. But certainly, no replacement could make it funnier. I get the image of these two, engaged in coitus on a cliff and suddenly both falling to their deaths, quite some distance.
