Iris

"Iris Genesis" Chapters are a prequel mini-series to the "Iris" Novels, which is in the same timeline/universe and revolves around the same character, Colin Craft. The mini-series features storylines removed from the novels due to a word cap, especially the surprise fan-favored story of Anna Smith. Condensed to 900 words/chapter, the easy-to-read design makes it great for readers that are always on the go. The mini-series takes place 2 years before the first book, "Iris: Destiny". There is no required order to read the chapters or formats, and they won't spoil each other. I like to think that they supplement each other, as "Destiny" is not an origin story. Volumes are a collection of chapters and will become available as they are released in their original Blogger page.
