Untold Tales Of The Technic History II

Continued from here.

(xiii) The Chaos, the transition to Technic Civilization and the origin of the Jerusalem Catholic Church.

(xiv) More about the Breakup and the Grand Surveys.

(xv) The early careers both of Nicholas van Rijn and of Max Abrams.

(xvi) Everyday life on Earth in the Solar Commonwealth, then in the Terran Empire.

(xvii) The fates of various planetary populations, both human and nonhuman, after the Fall of the Empire.

(xviii) On Dennitza, tales of the Merseian fisherfolk of the Obala and of human devotees of St. Kossara.

Do you get the impression that, long and dense though it is, the Technic History series merely scratches the surface? However, if we are invited to contemplate the lives of populations for millenia, then it can only be like this.

Kaor, Paul!

You already know my view that the "Chaos" mentioned in "The Saturn Game" refers to the chaotic era beginning with the Sarajevo Assassination in 1914. And that that era has not yet ended.

I would love to know more about the earlier lives of Old Nick and Max Abrams!

And ditto to the rest of what you wrote here.
