On the old forums I made a post about this, but since they no longer exist, I’ll write something again.
The final chapter of The Soldiers of Halla has been talked about and discussed quite a bit. Some love it. Others hate it. Some understand it fully. Others don’t get it. I’m not going to explain it all here because I’d prefer that readers draw their own conclusions. But I will make a few comments. First off, I don’t consider the ending to be a cliff hanger. Not even close. The story is very clear about what is going to happen next, and that is that Bobby will soon go to Solara and Courtney will not be far behind. To understand how the events described in the last chapter could have happened, you have to look at the end of the second to last chapter. Bobby lamented to Uncle Press that after all they had been through, it seemed unfair that the Travelers were not being allowed to live the normal lives they fought so hard for. All they wanted was a little bit of time to live those lives, which in the general scheme of Halla, wasn’t much . . . and Uncle Press agreed with him. How that was able to happen, and what all the implications are, I’ll leave that up to you to debate and decide.
I’ll say one other thing, and that’s about the guy who delivered Bobby’s journals to him in the hospital. Short of actually writing his name, I pretty much described exactly who it was. From the events that unfolded in the hospital room with Bobby and Courtney kissing and being interrupted, to his physical description, to Bobby recognizing him, to him saying that he had nine other journals to deliver, there is no other possible person that could have been…but Uncle Press.

idk. ask someone else or keep waiting.
i will be a Traveler says:
what would your 11th territory be Darkness?
Darkness says:
hm…….. idk. if i could invent another territory it would probably be…………………… much like yours. i just read your thing and that would be awesome. i’m a HUGE fan of books so that would be like heaven to me. except for all the mortal peril.
i will be a Traveler says:
idk if you would be able to die. i haven’t got that far.
Darkness says:
well, of course you could die! you said that you would be able to expirence it in the flesh not virtualy. so it wouldn’t be in the flesh if you couldn’t die.
i will be a Traveler says:
i guess. but what if you made all the descions that the main character made and you were the main character. i know that this will sound gross, but if the main character was a gut (like Bobby) you would be the guy. (unless a girl was with him and part of the action) and you made the same choices and all the stuff like that and if the main character dies in the book then at the part where he dies you become another character that doesn’t die or you get whisked out of that book and into another one.
i will be a Traveler says:
and instead of gut i meant guy.
Darkness says:
yeah, i guess that would work. as for my fav. character that would have to be probably…………………….idk. i’ll have to sleep on that one. my fav. territory is probably Cloral i LOVE water. if this was percy jackson i would either be a daugter of Athena or Posideon. my fav. part would be um…….idk. ALL OF IT I GUESS!!! but most of all the action packed scenes. all during the 10th book i was so absorbed into it i almost forgot to show up for dinner and i bascially couldn’t hear anyone i felt like i was in the book.
i will be a Traveler says:
i would probably be the same daughter too. if this WAS percy jackson which it is not.
Darkness says:
yeah, i guess you’re right. do you have anymore questions? i have to go and feed my cats soon.
i will be a Traveler says:
i don’t got anymore questions. and i have to go feed my cats too!!!
