Dalmady And The Planets

Emil Dalmady, from Altai, tells Nicholas van Rijn how he outwitted the Baburites on Suleiman.

Dalmady's daughter, Judith, moved to Avalon with the Falkayns and described her father's adventure on Suleiman in a story published in a periodical named after the Avalonian moon, Morgana.

Dalmady heard of an event on Ivanhoe and relayed it to Judith who fictionalized it for Morgana.

Judith also wrote an account of an incident involving the Falkayns' grandson on Avalon.

Thus, the Dalmadys contribute more than we might think to the Technic History.

Kaor, Paul!

And of course Emil Dalmady came from the recently colonized planet Altai, of which we see far more of centuries later in "A Message in Secret". My view is that has to be the funniest of the Flandry stories.
