I have been gone for a while, been writing new books. I may have missed this explanation in some other thread but here goes......In following the flow of oDNA as described in the latest RJ book, which one of Jack's parents had the oDNA to begin with? I have a hunch that his dad might have had a touch of it but, needless to say, the whole oDNA thing, as far as Jack is concerned, was left hanging in the breeze.

:p A good horror story will keep you up at night

Hello again Jaybird, welcome back.

*****SPOILER BELOW*****





Considering the amount of oDNA that Jack has, I'd bet that both of his parents have their own share. Now that the YA series is being written, I'm sure that we might see just how special Jack's parents are. Even if Jack's brother and sister don't seem to have their share of oDNA....it's as if all the stars lined up to "produce" Jack. In any event.....we'll just have to wait to find out. I for one, can't wait!

I'm sure it will be revealed, somewhere . . . somewhen.

Hi Jaybird! Welcome back.

No one knows, except Paul.

In the spirit of Christmas, maybe it was an immaculate conception (un-immaculate conception???), and neither of the parents had it. :eek: (Just joking Paul!)

Thanks for the welcome backs ya'll. I was really hoping to get an opening of FPW's mind on this one. Then again, like I was afraid of, maybe Paul doesn't even know. Being a writer, I can relate to that. I hate it when you write yourself into a corner and your readers call you on it and expect you to give them an answer to a question you yourself haven't answered yet. Then again I wouldn't put it past Paul to yank our chains.

Another "twist" in the story? Cool beans, I just love the twines and turns that are woven into this series. Keeps me coming back for more.

DNA, ssDNA, dsDNA, snDNA, cDNA, nDNA, mDNA...

And now it's time to edit the biochemistry texts! I'm glad oDNA hasn't been taken already.

I'm dying to read the YA Jack books to find about more about this oDNA stuff too. It reminds me a little of the "supermale" debate, with the increased aggression and violent tendencies.

It sounds like your having lots of fun with the YA series, perhaps more fun than you've had with Jack in a while. Nifty.

Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.
