Your question is a good one, and one ...Kaor, Paul!<br /><br />Your question is a good one, and one I've been thinking about. The problem is that "Nightpiece" is one of the oddest and one of the most difficult to understand stories written by Anderson.

Your comments here reminded me of Pou...Kaor, Paul!<br /><br />Your comments here reminded me of Poul Anderson's "Nightpiece," because, altho in different ways, both "Nightpiece" and THE BROKEN SWORD deal with non human races most men are not aware exists. With "Nightpiece" showing us how that was possible in a hard SF way.<br /><br />SeanSean M. Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973738112230622557noreply@blogger.com
