We are looking into how to split The Great Nuclear War of 1975 in two, or three, really. Relax. First off that is not set in stone. Second off, the two volumes would be released simultaneous like or near simultaneous like. Third off, the last volume covering events 1977-1981 would be released soonish. Doing this would allow us more time and space to explore fascinating issues in that time span.
As things stand right now, the MS is 111,000 words. We think it'll be 120,000 when we finish doing the things we need to do to get the MS to the SOTU of 1977. That's just under two average length novels for us. OK, Nederland is like, 75,000, but reader(s) get the point. It's a hell of an unruly book.
Yes, we have considered cutting things, but that leaves ideas on the floor and we'd much rather explore them.
