Excerpt: Callahan's Divide

Call me Callahan. Call me by my first name and I'm probably just going to punch you in the face.

What's there to say? We're living in a pit, the Pit, if you want to get technical. If you prefer the practical vernacular, then it's the Step Down. If you want to evoke mythology, call it the Underworld. Or, if you're one of those living on the Up and Up, the City Above the City, then you probably refer to my area of residence and current place of employment as the last hellhole you'd want to be caught dead in.
