Dear readers,

  I’ve just finished revising the first twenty chapters of Mech Coward.

  This round of edits wasn’t cosmetic—it reshaped the foundation of the story:

  Continuity tightened — No more timeline slips or rank mix-ups; details now align across the arc.

  The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  Character depth expanded — Nya’s background now has greater clarity, and Jack’s perspective as an ordinary soldier caught in the machinery of war is explored more fully.

  If you’ve followed Jack Harlan’s misadventures from the start, this is a good chance to re-read the opening acts with fresh eyes.

  If you’re new, you’ll be starting with the strongest version yet.

  Thanks for sticking with this strange journey of survival, fear, and reluctant heroism. The war continues—darker, sharper, and more alive than before.

  ?? For fans of Ciaphas Cain, Black Company, and cowards who accidentally save the world.
