The End of The Gypsy Morph Chap. 25

The website has been receiving a lot of mail (again, now that the paperback is out) concerning The Gypsy Morph and the end of Chapter 25.

The chapter ends in mid-thought, with no punctuation.

Terry planned this. It is in the original manuscript and it is in every other book out there. It is not a misprint or typo or error.

I repeat: It is not an error.

For those who want to know exactly what happened to that character, Terry asks you to go back and re-read the last few paragraphs leading up to the last sentence. It should become apparent what happened to that character. If it does not become apparent, feel free to visit the Forum where it is being discussed right now and learn the fate of that character and why the chapter ends as it does: The End of Chapter 25.

This is a classic tool of the trade. The other example I immediately think of is the end of Margaret Laurence's "The Stone Angel".
