Olga's Landing Old Quarter

A tame clopperhoof draws a wagon. Anyone making an authentic screen adaptation of Poul Anderson's The Game Of Empire would have to decide what a clopperhoof looks like. Human beings whose families have lived on Imhotep for generations are dark-skinned and aquiline-featured and should not look like dark-skinned Terrestrials. (There is a squat, black, planetary population in Larry Niven's Known Space - on Jinx?)

Like any good installment of a future history series, The Game Of Empire mixes old and new information. By this time, the series is so well-established and rich that there is much familiar information. There are references to:

Imperial offices
the Troubles
the Terran Empire
the inner Empire
the vaz-Siravo
a Merseian onslaught
Mother Terra
a regenerated arm
a centauroid Donarrian
Irumclagians
Shalmuans
Anglic
Toborko
Woden
Greater Terra
Adzel the Wayfarer
Tigeries
probably more but I must go out
