Spot on! Well done my friend! I seem to frequently identify with the conflicted heroes.

All is well. I have been saved by a Gorilla in Superhero tights!
Seriously. Sleep deprivation is the worst. I will silently kick myself over my other errors (there are a few), but hopefully everyone will forgive my "oops" and read on anyway...

peace & thanks,

AB

Loved it!

Almost what to hear what happens next though. . .

Hey Thanks, AB!

I appreciate you dropping by! Hmmm... I have a few "after" scenarios, but I decided I couldn't choose between them.
Short stories challenge me that way - I either have to keep it clipped or write a novella... lol!!!

In this case, I think a few quirks might come into the "best laid plans" of the Redeemers...

Thanks again!

This is awesome AB!

The way you captured the fundamentals, and the nuances of the radical population control advocacy in this piece, is absolutely perfect. Ludlum would be hard pressed to achieve better, and I say that as a Ludlum fan!

I'm no writer, but I am an avid reader, what a great premise for a trilogy. I can see this as end of book 2, now go and write book 1, finish book 2, and get onto book 3

A great read and my thanks for the distraction

Ah - more novels to languish in my computer, half finished, with frustrated characters poking into my consciousness every now and then to say, "Really? You left me HERE? Can't be bothered to pull me off the cliff's edge, I see... Sheesh..." (stomps off back to some dark corner of my awareness...)



So many stories... so little time...

Thank you for the great idea! Glad to contribute to anyone's moment of escape...

peace,
AB

Denver airport is one creepy place. Why they ever needed to replace it is beyond me (ehm*)

Two thumbs up!!

Hey there, Doc!

Thank you so much for dropping by the thread!! You are very kind in your assessment.

I feel like I've been under a rock lately and it's great to see people here again, yourself included.

That was a great read.

Can't wait to see if there is a sequel, I hope so.

Wowzer, AB, that is some powerful writing! Sucked me in and wouldn't let me go. Beautiful even. It would make an awesome graphic novella---that's how it unfolded in my head, I could "see" it as I read it. When that happens to me, I know I've read something of depth. I'm never surprised by you, but I am often reminded that you have SO much to offer.
