Serialization of The Deal, Chapter 20

My friend Joe Hutsko contacted with the intriguing offer to serialize his novel, The Deal, on Boing Boing. I jumped at the chance. I read The Deal when it first came out in 1999 and loved the thrilling story about a Apple-like company's undertaking to create an iPhone-like device.

Here's a link to Chapter 20 as a PDF or a text file. (Here's chapter 1 and an introduction to the book, and here are the previous chapters)

To buy a paperback copy of the book, visit JOEyGADGET or purchase directly from Amazon.

For anybody else reading this book - the PDFs have all been uploaded. Follow the link structure to get to the next one.

For example, this is http://boingboing.net/deal-20.pdf , the next one is http://boingboing.net/deal-21.pdf , the following is http://boingboing.net/deal-22.pdf , etc. I believe there are 24.

But fail to actually create any kind of interesting post for each one, but rather just paste this in every time to the point where it's a bit laughable :^)

Is anyone reading this? Or are we all waiting for it to come out in one easy chunk?

I read it... It's all up now but in bite-sized chunks. I guess you could mash them all into one big .pdf but.. meh.

See my post #1 above.
