It would end on a cliffhanger, leaving readers who pay hardcover prices waiting a year or so for volume II, and being pissed for not getting a full book for their money. I don't want to do that. To be fair to my readers, I <strong>have</strong> to bring it in in one volume. I’m not willing to go with two books — it’s one story with no good break-point in the middle.
