The Adventures of Alizar: The Beginning (Aizar Book 1)

Page 6

by F. Darnall Daley


  [Dinner guests, it’s Laketa. Aren’t you being overly dramatic, Alizar. You make it sound like it’s life or death for us with no reincarnation.]

  [Dinner guests, It’s Alizar. That’s exactly the message I wanted to covey. It’s life or death with no rebirth ever for us. The end.]

  [Dinner guests, it’s Jane. I agree with Alizar. We’ve got to be prepared to go into the high council meeting tomorrow and put forward ideas to solve our problems. The whole hive, as you say, is depending on us.]

  [Dinner guests, it’s John Prymuus. That’s the situation. Let’s meet again at the 6th hour of the next dawning. We’ll have some breakfast and decide on what we’re going to tell the high council meeting. Thomas, do you and John Kaatoe need any help getting back to your rooms.]

  [Dinner guests, Thomas. No, I think we’re fine. See you in the dawning.]

  Afterword

  In recent years my bride and I have been trying to clean out our Wyomissing, PA house. In a box in the attic I found a short-story manuscript written 15-20 years ago and never published. It was the beginning of Alizar’s story. This book is an expansion of that story.

  I would also like to thank my beta readers, my wife, Ernie Daley, my sister, Margaret Daley, my grandson, “C.J.” Daley and particularly noted author and lean operations consultant, Alan R. Severance, whose helpful suggestions were greatly appreciated.

  I would also like to thank Daribeth, Laketa, and Saryellis, young ladies at Publix super market in Hunters Creek, Florida, for letting me use their names.

  I hope you have enjoyed this story. Please go to Amazon and do a review. Amazon sets great store by your review and promotes books by the number of reviews. So please, post a review.
