Jeff, I've been waiting for Volume Two ever since I read the excert. That attack on the shopping center is so riviting. I've been expecting something a long those lines ever since 9-11. I also like the way you've woven the Mexican separtist movement into your story line.
Based on those comments, I believe you're in for a real treat. Also lots of stage setting for Volume III.
Please let me know ... and I trust it measures up.
