Mild spoilers for Hell's Pawn ahead...
I’ve wondered about this myself, mostly because Ben is going to be a very happy guy when he makes it to Heaven. Eventually he’ll have both Tim *and* Jace. Not a bad way to spend eternity. As for Victor, I don’t see him being the type to believe in a specific religion. He wouldn’t want to limit himself to any one philosophy. He would be the kind of soul to wander freely in the afterlife, although he might have gotten caught in Purgatory when things were so messed up there. I have no doubt that Victor and Jace would meet eventually, and I picture it being a very happy reunion. Victor would probably keep travelling though, enjoying a freedom he couldn’t find while living, camping out in the astral wilds. He’d still come around on occasion. I just hope Heaven has really big beds, since it’s going to get crowded. ;) As for what Victor and Jace would talk about, maybe that will end up in a story some day.

I messaged you a few months ago about short stories, but I just had an idea while writing my review of Autumn (https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1241027882) I, and I am sure many others, really love some of your minor characters, like Allison, and Bernard and Greg etc. While I can't see a novel about these people working, you could write a collection of linked short stories? Just an idea, feel free to ignore me :)

Have you ever considered writing about Brian and his relationship with Franklin? Maybe not a full story because I don't think I could handle one of your characters committing suicide, but maybe it's an important story to tell about when things don't end all hunky dory.
