Ok I just found out the other day it was available, (been busy with work) and I couldn't see anything on the Baen website saying it was only partially posted, so my question is, is it really only 8 chapters? the avg previous books have been 35-60 chapters.

Thanks

It is indeed only 8 chapters.

It is, however, relevant to note that they are 8 obscenely long chapters. :D

I thought the same thing when I initially purchased the book. I was like wow... only 8 chapters. But as the previous poster stated. They were very long.

Are we talking about the bundle or the EARC? Because the EARC should be the whole manuscript.

Each chapter is one month long. Its like a play in 8 acts with all the scene markers deleted. A couple of the chapters are relatively short. But yes it is the entire book, no bundles.

Yep We Few only has two chapters. Chapter one is about five or six pages and chapter two is 95% of the rest of the book.

Not the same but Look Homeward, Angel. First chapter covers the first 65 years of his life, the remaining 900 pages (after severe editing) is his last year.
