Hi Dave,
We've just begun reading Destroyers (and thoroughly enjoying it!) but we noticed that there is an abrupt ending to Chapter 8, and then it starts back up again at Chapter 12, with obvious missing bits in between.

Drats! I think there is a limit to how much each post will allow, and now I'll have to figure a way to squeeze in the stuff that was cut off. A further problem is that I do not have proper internet access through my own computer at the moment, so I cannot copy from it. Be patient, friends, as I seek a way to clear this up over the next few days.

OK I've fixed it so all the text is there. You can catch up on the missing bits now!

Thanks, Rob. Actually, there are still a lot of technical and typographical errors in what appears there, but as soon as I am able, I will try to replace it with the improved text.

Good work, Dave!
"Destroyers" is a great read, and I like how much emphasis is placed on NOT taking the mark. Discussing the INITIAL "accomplishments" of what the AC had achieved when coming into power lends credibility to the ultimate challenge of the unspeakable evil that he (and his "followers") do.
"Don't take it, brothers and sisters, don't take it"---(Josephat referring to the mark of the beast).
The ending did seem a bit abrupt to me, but I've noticed many movies ending like that these days, so it's not much of a critique!

Of all the things the people of the world are thinking and doing these days, how many have stopped EVERYTHING to just consider the flowers?

Dave's churned out another thought provoking book. I can see lots of bits and pieces of different people we have met along the way. Thanks to Chris for all of her proof-reading and trouble shooting for him.

The corrected version is up there now, including a whole extra page in chapter 26. If anyone sees typographcal errors in this now, please do let me know.

Yeah, the way 'Stump' was askig Amy what was wrong with the mark was a good view of what a systemite would think when told that the mark was from the devil. "It's just a microchip Amy"...
