Teaser Tuesday with Semper Audacia

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

This is the first story I'm reading on my new Nook Color. Semper Audacia is a space opera novelette by M. Pax. It's fantastic so far. I really need to read more science-fiction. She had rekindled my love of it.

 Here's your teaser:
Something akin to gladness then pride flickered through Leda's synapses. So much time had passed since experiencing such things, the sentiments rolled foreign and hard to grasp among her thoughts. (page 22)
