    It’s implied but it doesn’t actually say if it happens or not between Danial and Penelope doing more. Her giving him something for the video of him and his mom.

    In my humble opinion, this is your best one (so far). Why? You managed to introduce variations in the right time to renew the plot and keep it scalating. Love the interlude in the cabin, the finer example of what i was saying.

    Great read, it kept me entertained throughout. I do have a question though. Are these women actually in love in Daniel or are they simply addicted to his magical thing?

    Also do you plan to have an epiloogue showing what became of the main characters. I actually feel a bit for Brad who, while not good person, lost everything.

    1. Rawls

      I don’t have any plans for an epilogue. As far as whether the characters love Daniel or not, that answer is up to you. Based on their actions and words, you can decide for yourself. I wrote this a while ago, and … I honestly don’t remember 🙂

    Great storytelling… well written and incorporating an astonishing amount of research in various cultures and religions. My only negative critic would be that under no circumstances is Die Hard a Christmas movie! ?

    I was reading the illustrated chapters and just had to know how the story would end. I love how you interweave the ghost elements. The ending made me wonder what would happen to the family in the future. Fanfic for my imagination.

      Thanks for the feedback. I always try and close the story, but leave the characters moving forward for the reader. It’s a tricky tightrope to walk 🙂

      Your membership is pending because PayPal puts a hold on echecks. I’ll go ahead and activate your membership, assuming that the check is good. 🙂

    Really love your story like always but didn’t finish it at the moment.
    I was a little put off by all the sharing in the later chapters.
    I mean I already wasn’t a fan when the MC started sharing everything with his twin sister and her becoming like a other MC but then when he shares the principal with her son it really put me off.

      Thanks for sharing your opinion! My different stories will cover different topics and themes. Sometimes people have strong reactions. I think out of everything I’ve written, the Roy character in SITW got the most comments. Half the people hated him and wanted him out of the story. The other half routed for him to win.

    how do I get the stories with illustrations?

    Is the stone from Dark Stone series and the pieces of the corrupted and shattered dream stone from THOPM somehow connected?

    1. Rawls

      Yes, indeed! The shattered dreamstone was the birth of several dark stones, one of which was left by some train tracks …

    Can’t download to my phone; is it because the file is too big?

    1. Rawls

      The size of the file is probably the problem. This is the longest novel, and thus the biggest file. Can you download other stories on your phone?

        1. Rawls

          The story is not zipped with two textured version and plain. See if you can download the zip and open. Let me know.

    it’s an extremely interesting story, I like the ideas presented, I hope to see something similar.

    1. Rawls

      I actually have an idea for a haunted painting that will explore similar themes.

  13. screwbie

    you might have answered in another thread but is there any plan to add the illustrations for each story?

    1. Rawls

      There are no plans to add illustrated versions of any of the stories to this site. All the illustrations stay at Dark Stone Stories.

        1. Rawls

          Haha, times change, I guess. Sometimes quickly.

    Magnificent. After reading chaps 1 to 13 with the illustrations. It feels a bit unfinished but it’s still wonderful.
