This is about the aftermath of war and people's sacrifices. He didn't want to leave his young wife but his sense of duty made him answer the call. Nevertheless, there are always consequences for every decision and his were very severe indeed. I try to post something every July Fourth to honor those who served. This one cuts a little closer to the bone than most. So, I hope you enjoy.

A story in the Beyond the Wall of Sleep Universe Part of Gothic Horror Challenge
Our hero wakes up on a tramp freighter with no memory. That kicks off a lifetime adventure that begins on a mysterious island and ends on a cliff overlooking Lyme Regis. It features a beautiful woman, some friendly Icelanders, a few unfriendly Vikings, a couple of gay guys, a malicious demi-god and the CIA. There are also a few twists, so don't get too comfortable. Please enjoy... DT
This all started when my pal RichardGerald abducted my dog and put him in a story. The ending was a bit harsh (e.g., a classic RG piece). So, folks asked me to talk to him about a sequel. RG felt that it ended where it should. Instead he proposed a follow-on like we did with The Empire Builder. So, this is the continuation written in my style. As for Buster. He appreciates your concern. He'd be here to thank you himself, but he's outside right now rolling in something disgusting. / (Reviews)
This story has my usual helping of boats and dogs. It doesn't venture outside the realm of academia; a place I know far too well. The theme is miscommunication, misunderstanding, and the perils of making assumptions. The characters are all trying to get-by; just like the rest of us. They make mistakes and they sometimes hurt each other. But as somebody once said, "Judge not, lest ye be judged." I hope you enjoy - DT
