Hi @BlastYoBoots

Great catch and and equally intuitive question.

My publisher was Humanity's Promise to be approximately 170,000 words, but the story ended up being about 202,000, which is a pretty big difference, but not the end of the world when it comes to print. It also added about three hours of audio, which is a much bigger deal in terms of voice talent and production time. Issues related to the lost crew added about 8,000 words and, some argued, could be accounted for because of the chaos associated with that part of the story, or to "off screen" interactions. As with movies, you have to pick your battles. I was unwilling to remove or make material changes to either Pasha's "Elias" story or Charlotte's "Humanity's Promise" speech, which meant discussions about the losses you mention were not included in the final Humanity's Promise manuscript.

Blah blah blah...the long and short of it is that the issue your raise will be revisited in the 3rd book, the first draft of which currently stands at about 30%. It will directly speak to conversations Benjamin and Isabella had with Pasha and will actually be foreshadowing something for one of those characters that will occur toward the very end of Omandi's Daemon.

I hope this helps. Thanks so much for your interest and attention to detail. I hope you enjoyed the story and are looking forward to the third book of the trilogy!!(less)

Book two is out now and book three, A Wizard’s Soul, should be out in spring of 2018.
