Hey, Steve! Thank so much for this. It's great to hear from someone who has read all the various versions. Some of this ending was inspired by a screenplay I co-wrote with a dear friend and filmmaker that unfortunately never got made into a feature, but there was some really great stuff that I thought worked really well so incorporated bits and pieces. I'm definitely proud of that first version, too. It'll always hold a special place in my heart as the one that started my writing career. Thanks again!

Thank you for reading! And for your thoughtful comments. ❤️

Thank you!

Thank you, @Philippe!

They are written but I'm doing a LOT of rewriting as I'm posting. You do learn a bit more about the gifts throughout the books. It's a slow process though. As a few of you have noted, Killian can be a bit stubborn...

I think it is! That's why I chose it. I'm watching Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated right now with my partner. It's a lovely throwback to one of my childhood favorites!

Thank you so much! I always looked forward to your comments with each chapter! And I think chronological was the winner. Next up is Adam's backstory, a short two or three chapter tale. All I'll say about Killian's driving is you'll especially enjoy the start of the third Killian novel, All Lost Things. 😂 Stay tuned!

Yeah, I agree that Todd is as much a victim as he is a villain. He was made a monster. His character makes me more sad than anything these days. This isn't the last you see of Jake. That's all I'll say for now... Thank you so much. That means a lot. And thank you for your feedback. I think I'll go with the chronological order, which means the next story will be Adam's backstory...

Thank you for going on this adventure with me!

Hmm, yes. Good point!

Huzzah!

Thank you, @Geron Kees. High praise coming from you. I wonder what Charlie and Kippy would make of Killian... 😂

I promise I'm on the good list...

I always feel a little sad when I come to end of a Charlie Boone story. I love being lost in their world, even for just a few hours. Another great story. Thanks, Geron. Can't wait to see what you're cooking up next.

Thank you!
