    Chapter 1

    I had to reread this again this morning, this is as good as any Twilight Zone story! Brief, succinct and to the (knife) point!

    Chapter 13

    I'm reminded of an old proverb about a group of brothers who quarreled. The father, holding a single stick easily snaps it in half, then he holds in his hand sticks representing each brother and while they bend, they don't break.

    I love this comment! I was never a fan of running until I went freerunning in the woods during a Boy Scouts campout. That was a blast!

    This is, perhaps, the most fitting proposed end to the plot... I like it.

    Chapter 9- Epilogue

    Thank you, looking forward to your next, I am curious...won't the book encourage others to look for the tomb and possibly excavate it for the treasures within?  If it was found once....

    What a incredibly sad miasma of self-flagellation...wonder what would happen if the two of them talked to each other instead of at each other.

    I had forgotten about Adam's father, he deserves the same treatment those malicious teens deserve, only I'd see his bollocks were removed first!.  Quite frankly, that man should be locked up and the key tossed in the bin... I believe Eric just may have landed a gardening consultant's job...humm? There goes the diet.... https://www.bettys.co.uk/cakes/fat-rascals

    I'm a bit worried for Eric, I don't think, (hope I am wrong), we have seen the last of 'those teens'. They should be caught, suspended by their ballocks till they see the error of their ways. What I like best about this story, is that we get a glimpse of the unvarnished reality that exists for so many of those around us. Too often when confronted with this sort of reality, when it becomes newsworthy, the spotlight's glare quickly fades. A&A deserve more than simple credit, they are hono

A&A deserve more than simple credit, they are honorable young men who have seen the need and opened their hearts, understanding the struggles that define Eric's life. Much of the same can be said for Brian and Susan, they are a fresh cup of friendship!

    As the letters point out, that while somewhere along the line, many souls have lost their humanity and we are comforted by those who haven't. The new neighbors are well meaning, clueless perhaps...but is that all they are?

    The End of the Pass

    What a sad but necessary chapter. At times like this words can only mean so much and say so little. D'gar needs to remember what he is an why he fights. As we all know the near future will be gruesome, D'gar needs to pull up his bootstraps!

    In the end

    Well done, I thought the construction of the story was spot on. What you have allowed us to see are fragments in a day consisting in a comedy of errors. Disparate vignettes that somehow coalesce and leave us wondering how all, well most all, will turn out!
