"I am a hopeless romantic.  I am, however, not a very nice hopeless romantic.  You have been warned." - Gareth Williams.

This eBook Edition

Unlike the web version, this eBook edition does not have separate files for each chapter, instead all of the chapters for each part are held in a single file. This is primarily to reduce the number of files to a more manageable number. The text has been edited to be more suitable for reading on a PDA screen, so indents, white space and title positions have been modified, and page links removed. The story text itself has been left unchanged. If you notice any errors caused by the re-formatting for this eBook edition, or any problems on this page These eBook editions are based on an extract of http://www.b5-dark-mirror.demon.co.uk/ taken on March 3 2003, with the entire story published except for the Volume 5 synopsis.
