The Messengers Series, Book 1: World’s Apart, Chapter 32

Today is the conclusion. I realize that this is Memorial Day, and it is actually appropriate, because there is a memorial in this chapter.

Now that the first book is over, I’m sure you are all wondering: when is the second book? That is an excellent question. It is written, but it needs a serious edit. It is also a lot longer, like twice as long as the first.

I’m hoping to have it out by July or August, but don’t quote me on that one.

Anyway, the chapter is after the jump.
