Goku and Gohan fly on the Kinto Un

The rough draft of The Dao of Dragon Ball is complete. The Divine Combat chapter and the entire Martial Arts section are finished.

The current count for the book is 247 pages at 112,455 words.

I started this project in 2003, and after 7 years of effort I am finally beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

My goal is that all Dragon Ball fans will find something to learn and enjoy in this book.

Now the real labor begins. I have to try and make it good!
