Yes, this second part of book 4, seamlessly continues where the first part ends: the barrel of a shotgun pressed against Alice’s head.
Probably. That’s what the present draft says, anyway.
And no, I won’t give you any hints on that one.
But, I’ll tell you this: part two is quite a contrast to part one.
It’s not as breathless, but in its own way it’s just as intense.
While there are clashes and quite a variety of surprises, the town emerges and once again the teams get to dig deeper into what it takes to build an environment that is healthy for humans and creates a natural balance between people and nature.
It’s quite a ride. And the last months sees the team on overdrive, counting down the days until the first towners arrive.

‘I heard you can’t even make jokes if you work for that town project.’
‘Oh, you can make jokes. Only they have to be good jokes, not the cheap stuff that calls racism, sexism and populism infinite sources of wittiness, sweet like little kittens rolling around the floor. Admittedly you need a bit of brain to make jokes which don’t require any offence. But you know what, we all have a bit of brain, so technically there’s nothing keeping you from becoming a true comedian.’
