Just received the LT edition of OOTD. Of course, I only read the Postscript this time. It was a really good start for what might have been another Owen Chantry story. I also noted your final words about not having someone else finish the story. I think you are absolutely right not having someone else finish any of your dad's work. And, that's interesting to me because I've been thinking about how that might work. My opinion is it just couldn't. No matter how good or bad a stand-in might be, they could never be LL. I've seen it tried a few times after other authors passed. It never struck me as particularly successful.
