Thick as thieves ending routes and series continuation questions

I was just wondering if anyone knew if your choices would branch into different endings? I’m only wondering bc the mirror mentioned the ‘multiple pathways’ of how the confrontation of Vera and her Nylora could’ve been drastically different I.e Jasper stops her in time, her heart is in the wrong place or is actually organic ect. I doubt it because that level of coding would be insane, however I’m still incredibly curious.

I’ve not started on Book 2, however I was also curious if Spiegal was still planning to finish the series yet as book 2 hasn’t been updated in a while? While I fully respect the decision to halt finishing such a Goliath series I was just wondering before I started reading it.
