Checkmate

CheckmateAndrew Kensington's plans come to fruition, and Nick and the Winds have only a narrow window of opportunity to avert a full scale war between the races by striking first. But as the Court stands poised to open a second front, it may already be too late to stop the bloodshed.About the Serial EditionThe Integrated Serial Edition is an alternate version of the text of all five Pact Arcanum books, which has been spliced together scene-by-scene, and sometimes line-by-line, into a chronological narrative. There are no parallel/duplicate storylines or flashbacks in this version, only a linear storyline from beginning to end. The resulting text has been broken down by section heading into 12 parts, each approximately 25,000 to 45,000 words in length, or between roughly 100 and 200 pages long. The purpose of creating this edition was to eliminate some levels of complexity, in order to make the text more accessible to casual readers.
