A little game to play

Here are the rules:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don’t search around and look for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what’s actually next to you.

And here's my sentence:

"But he was back in a moment, drifting awkwardly through the air as he massaged a cramped calf."

I'm willing to bet no one will know what this sentence comes from. It's hardly "Call me Ishmael".

PS: Googling the sentence is cheating. It will give you an author but not the book. It will also give you a little Frodo/Sam slash fiction. Slash fiction, one of many things I just don't get...
