Two Periods Of The Technic History

Falkayn, Adzel and Chee Lan fall meteorically in order to land undetected on Baburite-occupied Hermes. Falkayn is Hermetian. The power behind the Baburites is a Polesotechnic League cartel, the Seven in Space. The Baburites had appeared before. The League is disintegrating. 

Flandry, Chives and Kit fall meteorically in order to land undetected on Ardazirho-occupied Vixen. Kit is Vixenite. The power behind the Ardazirho is the rival Imperium of Merseia. The Ardazirho had not appeared before. The Terran Empire is declining.

Apart from all their similarities, the two periods are completely different!

Kaor, Paul!

MIRKHEIM was written about 17 years after HUNTERS, and the greater experienced gained in writing by Anderson during those years shows in the greater depth of detail and thought seen in the former work.

Ad astra! Sean
