I just put
Birthdays Suck up on my web site. This is a free short story, part of the Sentinels series, set back in the early nineties when Paul was a teenager. It's Paul's birthday, and he's not at all happy about it, because he's sure his life is pretty much over.
Note that this story has a
MAJOR spoiler for
A Hidden Magic. If you haven't read that, and plan to, you'll want to read that first, then go read "Birthdays Suck" afterward.
Enjoy!
Angie
I'm glad you liked the short, and hope you enjoy the books! It'll be interesting to see how Hidden Magic reads, since you've read "Birthdays Suck." I imagine it'll change your perception of one of the major plot devices; you can read along feeling superior to Rory for knowing something major that he doesn't, which is usually fun. :D
Thanks!
Angie
