VOYA is a trade magazine for librarians. This is a very nice surprise. [/SIZE]
Very well done, and very much deserved. When is the second YA RJ book coming out, btw??

Curses! Tis an Otherness plot I say!
I believe Paul is talking about his puiblisher realizing that book 3 of the trilogy would make a better story for the 2nd book. This required some major rewrites to fit into the timeline and make sense.

Axioms Jack seems to live by (inadvertantly or not):
Why he does what he does: "I chose this life. I know what I'm doing. And on any given day, I could stop doing it. Today, however, isn't that day. And tomorrow won't be either." Bruce Wayne, Identity Crisis
On Rasalom: "Water's wet, the sky is blue...and good old Satan Claus, Jimmy...he's out there...and he's just gettin' stronger." Joe Hallenbeck, The Last Boyscout
