As we get closer to the release of Prophecy (this fall), I thought I'd put up a few fun number facts about the two books.

Progeny had 264,223 words over 74 chapters, Prophecy has 265,459 words over 62 chapters.

Events in Progeny (excluding prologue) took place over 42 days, the duration of Prophecy (also excluding prologue) is 74 days.

Prophecy's prologue takes place 7 years after Progeny’s prologue. Both take place 250 years before either book.

Chapter 1 of Prophecy starts 27 days after the Epilogue of Progeny.
