Nor did he realize that a decision he made would have such a catastrophic effect on two passengers who boarded a plane in Chicago.

Uncharted includes an early look at Covet, coming September 2013.

Yet I never stopped thinking about the boy who had fought to keep me alive in a world that would have swallowed me whole. He was the past that I buried, but never forgot.

For two people who had survived so much, we would have to learn how to hold on before we were forced to let go.
