But there is no conclusion. I am really sad about this.

I finished it just today, and I immediately began looking for the sequel, just knowing from the end of the story that Quillon would be leading the hunt for other Tectomancers in the next volume. The adventure in the Bane captures so much imagination that I was looking forward to find out what other things were yet undiscovered. Thank you for a great read.Ty Rodenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16714689893643930476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5143440998478479157.post-28353610733449309572013-07-24T15:50:21.247-07:002013-07-24T15:50:21.247-07:00Belatedly found this post.

It's awesome that you've released this! <br /><br />I completely missed loads of hints in the book that earth2 was actually supposed to be Mars. Was spearpoint a magnetic field generator?
