I’ve had some wonderful messages from people saying that the serial has been cheering them up in a grim situation. I’ve therefore decided to allow Jarra to take her time winding up the story. That means part 18 has been posted and the serial still hasn’t finished. There isn’t a lot left for Jarra to say though, so part 19 really should be the end.
And if anyone is thinking that it isn’t a case of me deciding this at all, but that I have absolutely no control over Jarra… Well, you could be right.
As usual, I’m giving the warning that the completed novella will only remain on my website for two weeks before being removed, trimmed, and polished ready to be published in the Earth Prime collection with some other stories set after Earth Flight.
If there’s enough interest in Earth Prime then the plan is to have a new series about Fortuna. Meanwhile, anyone interested in Jarra’s ancestors and Exodus century should try reading my Scavenger Exodus series.

Love, Love, Love the appearances of Keon and Issette and their interaction with Jarra again! and of course what a pleasure to have Gradin and Valeska drop by, too! I’m torn between wanting to read the ending and not wanting the story to end. but I know when it ends it will just mean that you will be working on more stories that will be published soonish! Thank you so much for this incredible story! Looking forward to the Collection!

I’ve been enjoying the story a lot – and I had a good time chuckling over you having no control over Jarra, which sounds about right. 😀 I’ve particularly loved seeing Colonel Torrek, having developed a soft spot for him over time

Okay, now I’m looking forward to Earth and Water even more… not to mention Earth Prime! Love this story and can’t wait to read the rest.

I don’t think I’ve ever laughed more at books than when Gradin and Valeska are on the scene
