For those of you who enjoyed Terminal Mind and have been waiting patiently for my next book, thank you!  Quintessence is undergoing some minor edits at the request of my editor, but the book is entirely written. (In fact, I’m halfway through the sequel.) “Where is it, then?” you might ask. “Where is this masterpiece, that we may read it?” Sadly, the wheels of publishing turn slowly, and small pebbles like me can get pushed out of the way by bestselling boulders. It may actually be another year yet before it hits bookstores. To help you while away the time, however, I’ve posted the first three chapters for your reading enjoyment. After you read, drop me a comment and let me know what you think!
