:lol: :lol: :lol:

Excellent read!! That was a very unexpected turn of things. Mind you, 10% is painfully little. But then again, better than dead! Very smart idea. Can imagine it took a while to work that one out.

:lol: it certainly had me crack up laughing, particularly his countdown.

Looking forward to see how that develops.

He just bought all the factories in the sector for 10% of the construction cost.

Reworded to make it clearer, thanks for the feedback - I was racing the go-to-work-clock finishing that up.

Ah it right there in the middle of the exciting bit. Guess I need to read more carefully. Perhaps if I go back to doing that I might also stop some corrections to be made ;)

New part posted.

As I mentioned to Kiwinz in a pm reply - from October I'll be back at University part-time doing creative writing at undergraduate level. The Head of Department has admitted me straight to Year 2 on the strength of the Rogue series.

I'm hoping to get a publishable fantasy novel out of it.

That's quite a step to be making :) Based on this work it should be a formality...

Just one potential spot:

"It wasn't enough to safe those..." - should be "save"?
