‘Climbing the Ladder’ is the story of Jonathan Edward Kane from Goshen, Ohio. It takes place in the same universe as ‘A Well-Lived Life’ and ‘Good Medicine’, and there are many crossover characters in the universe.

While this story can be read standalone, I strongly encourage you to read all that has come before this book! A suggested reading order may be found here:

Generally, you’ll get more out of the stories in the universe if you follow the suggested reading order.

A special thanks to Steve Smith, my editor, who has done an incredibly fantastic job helping me bring these characters to life. Also, to my proofreaders and the members of the AWLL Discord server who get to read the pre-release chapters and point out the remaining typos and mistakes.
