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.
