This is my first attempt at a novel-length story. I think it's pretty good, but that's up to you who read it. Its at 67,400 words right now, and this is the FIRST draft, as it was in the NaNoWriMo contest. All characters and situations are copyright © 2010 Michael Heinsohn, AKA Michael Sorien. Please don't distribute, but DO comment in detail about what you do and don't like in the story, and especially let me now where you see real problems. I KNOW Chapter 28 needs to be rewritten. ;)
