Which of Shadowgod's cliffhangers would you rate as the Mother of All Cliffhangers, and list the cliffies. I will past in a copy of the detailed list of LiS cliffies I posted here in this forum, but Shadowgod has cliffies in other stories too; Shot of Bourbon, Prelude to Destiny, and also Dreams & Cliffed Wings
Warning, spoilers below!!!! Do not read unless you have already read Living in Surreality.
Ch2
Joanne gave Jacob a look which spoke volumes, trust, understanding, but most of all that what happened with the school district in Sacramento wasn't entirely his fault.
And we wait for two several more chapters before finding out WHAT Jacob did in Sacramento.
Ch 5
Matt's face blanched, wondering how long Jacob had been standing there. Matt couldn't find the words, as Jacob slowly backed away, tears threatening to run down his cheeks. Jacob turned and ran from the school, unwilling to give Matt the satisfaction of seeing him hurt.
This was a doozy of a cliffhanger, JAcob had just heard Matt deny him. This is the infamous locker cliffhanger; Jacob breaks his hand punching a locker.
Ch 6
"Val?" he repeated in a high-pitched croak.
The line went dead.
Matt threw the receiver across the room with a painful howl, where it smashed against the wall. Wrapping his arms around his head, Matt attempted to shield himself from the anger and frustration he felt with himself, with Jacob, and most of all, with Valerie.
We are left, feeling Matt's angst, he feelings of abandonment and betrayal, as the chapter ends in a dizzying cliffhanger.
Ch 8, the "Nazi Waitress" tells Matt about Val and Jacob's appearing as a couple at the pizza parlor.
Ch 9, Matt and Jacob caught in the act by Matt's father, and the chapter ends with Matt's Mom planning on having a long talk with Jacob's Mom.
Ch 12
"Come over," Jacob commanded. "Wear a hat," then he abruptly hung up not giving Matt a chance to question.
Jacob smiled, as he dialed Valerie's number next.
What is Jacob up too? We are left HANGING to find out!!!
Ch 14, Brendon kissed Jacob at the movies, and the chapter ended before it was resolved, leaving us to wonder if Val would castrate Jacob.
Ch 18:
Richard nodded his assent, "I'll talk with Matthew, he'll fight, just like the last time I came between him and this little shit. I think Matthew or Valerie said he had moved here from Sacramento. So you might want to tell this Raul guy that he may have to travel up north."
"It won't be a problem for him; he had to go to Taiwan for s similar situation," Catherine shrugged as she pulled her self off of Richard's desk.
"Find out how quick he can get me some starting information, will you, I want this Matthew issue dealt with before it becomes too much of a problem," Richard said, dismissing her, and in effect his son.
Here we are getting into the truly dizzying cliffhangers: MAtt's Father has just sicked a PI on his own son!!!
Ch 20
"Hello?" a familiar voice sounded from the other end that threatened to fracture Jacob's wide smile. "Jacob?" the voice asked, as Jacob's brow furrowed with the sound of his name in a voice he never thought he'd hear again.
"Cody?" Jacob responded, his voice nearly catching in his throat as the excitement bled out from him.
This is the call from Cody to JAcob, and the chapter ends, leacing us HANGING as we wonder what on earth it will entail.
CH 21
"Hello," he spoke with a smile, watching as Cody pulled his shirt from where it was slung over his shoulder, using it to wipe the beads of sweat from his face, and then from his lean, sculpted torso. "Nice day today," Raul commented, making small talk.
Cody spared the man a sarcastic smile. "Nice shirt," Cody smirked; panning the loud Hawaiian print shirt Raul wore with the top four buttons unbuttoned revealing the white A-shirt he wore underneath.
"You didn't call me out here to mock my shirt," Raul observed, receiving a surrendering half-smile from Cody in the process. "I take you called me out here to talk."
Cody took a moment to think about the guy's assessment. Figuring it was mostly true, he gave Raul a cocky nod, accentuated with an even cockier smile.
Here we are left HANGING wondering what Cody will do regarding Raul's offer. Will he betray JAcob?
Ch 22: Matt and Jacob at the quarry, manage to get locked out naked, and have to call Carlos. I'd call this a naked cliffhanger if ever there was one!
Ch 23:
"C'mon," Joanne said stepping away, her eyes threatening to water. "Let's all go have some lemonade," she offered opening the front door.
this one is the infamous Lemonade Cliffhanger.
Ch 26... Quite simply, the Mother of All Cliffhangers.
And there we have it... 13 cliffhangers, each one building until we are slammed and ripped assunder by LiS 26. I'm definitely not saying that Shadowgod over-used cliffies, but rather, he uses them for effect. Devastating effect.
In a good democratic poll, there should be option of all the possibilities... 
...............LiS 26 is my favorite, and I note is still leading at 100% Way to go Shadowgd!!
Damn! Thank God I'm reading this as it's complete. There are a lot of cliffhangers! Poor CJ! 
I wonder if this isn't the incident that permanently affected his brain and made him addict to cliffies.
