July 27th excerpt:

Slowly, a shuddering rumble through the house pulled Bobby from his unsettled dreams and he woke with a gasp. Hunter instincts yanked him to full waking in seconds, the gun under his pillow in his hands and pointing at nothing before his eyes were fully open.

There was nothing there, and Bobby grumbled to himself as he shoved the gun back into hiding. Then, he realized what had woken him, as another shudder rocked the house. It wasn’t enough to knock the photos from his shelves, but it made itself known like a small-scale earthquake.

July 25th excerpt: 

“Dean was born in trouble,” Sam mumbled absently, flipping a page in the book. He distantly hoped that Bobby had found more information than they had. Aside from the “fee, fie, fo, fum” stories that littered the world, there wasn’t much lore to go on. Bobby had books that reached back to ancient times, and Sam was banking on there being information in there.

July 24th excerpt:

Jacob watched the black sky above and realized with an internal jolt that Sam could take him out right that instant. He stood right over Jacob’s throat, and he carried guns and knives with him. Even Dean could leap forward with his machete right then if he thought Jacob was a threat. He had to hope that his continued trust in them would pay off.

July 23rd excerpt:

“See if you can find any good places to stop for the night,” Dean said. “We should check on Jacob before long.”

“Right,” Sam said, slouching down in his seat.

“And keep an eye on that giant!”

July 22nd excerpt:

The increased speed nearly caught Jacob off guard and he took a longer stride to make sure he kept up with the car. The motor, so powerful in reality, sounded far away like a remote control car from his prodigious height. The tail lights winked with every slight change in the incline as the very odd trio made their way along.

July 21st excerpt:

“Yeah, hey Bobby.”

They finally escaped the cell phone dead zone, and Sam dialed up Bobby instantly. Dean listened with half an ear, his eyes on the road to avoid the glare from the flashlight Sam was using to see the maps.

“We’ve got a problem.” Sam was intently listening, and Dean wished he could hear Bobby’s responses. He arched an eyebrow at Sam, and the phone was put onto speaker mode while Dean flicked the radio off.

July 20th excerpt:

Sam twisted around in his seat and rifled through the belongings in the back, pushing aside some of the tent fabric that filled the backseat until he could snatch up one of the library books he’d checked out.

“Here.” Sam tossed one at Dean. “Something for the trip.”

Dean plucked up the edge of a cover. “I’m so thrilled,” he said sarcastically.

Sam got a book for himself and leafed through to the section on giants. “Might as well pass the time.”

July 19th excerpt:

“What do you think Jacob means about buying more time?” Dean wondered as he straightened the last of the tent poles in the backseat.

“Guess we’ll find out,” Sam said dryly.

July 18th excerpt:

“Sorry, guys,” was their only warning before Jacob’s fingers curled inwards, ushering Dean back towards his palm. He scooped them both up in his hand and tucked that hand close to his chest where he could defend them.
