cosmological sf.

Kaor, Paul!
As I'm sure you will recall, I'm still not convinced or satisfied that "The Chapter Ends" genuinely belongs with the Psychotechnic series. I would still argue "The Chapter Ends" is a stand alone, non series story. Nothing in that story has struck me as being even remotely "descended" from the Psychotechnic era. I still think Sandra Meisel shoe horned "Chapter" into that series. The story is best understood as one of the non series stories Anderson wrote in his early years as a writer.
I still hope that you will look up some time Avram Davidson's Ruritanian stories about the Triune Monarchy of Scythia-Pannonia-Transbalkania, set in an alternate Europe circa 1890-1910.
