The Imaginary Bomb #4: Chapters 10-15

We're back! And thanks for your patience during the hiatus caused by the unexpected death of Warren's mom. To show our appreciation for your hanging in there with us, I-Bomb #4 is packed with six (count 'em) chapters of adventure.

Chapter 10. An imaginary firefight. Baxter Hetznecker surprises Bob and Pete, who are tied up as a squad from Sirius faces off against Linda Franco's little team.

Chapter 11. Rushing through space. Part of Baxter's secret is revealed, and Bob has an intimate conversation with Linda. (Don't get yer hopes up; this isn't that kind of novel!)

Chapter 12. Quarreling over dinner etiquette. Linda discovers that the cargo ship Betsy Ross is not equipped to be vegetarian-friendly.

Chapter 13. Role-playing games. Bob and Pete are greeted, but not exactly welcomed, to Sirius 4.

Chapter 14. True confessions. Bob and Pete are interrogated by Lt. Joshua True, Special Forces. The plot thickens a bit.

Chapter 15. Linda can't get Sirius. It appears the roles of Bob Whelan and Pete Wong in this little adventure are finally coming to an end, but as you may recall, there are 27 chapters, so something must happen to get them back on the hook.

As the Imaginary Bomb podcast resumes, the rest of these recordings are dedicated to the memory of Hilda Bluhm, a sweet lady who was born Dec. 14, 1923, and died June 6, 2006. And thanks to everybody for understanding.
