"Now The Earth Book of Stormgate is ended."
-Poul Anderson, AFTERWORD IN Anderson, Rise Of The Terran Empire (Riverdale, NY, March 2011), p. 323.
It is signed:
"Hloch of the Stormgate Choth
"The Earthbook of Stormgate" (ibid.)
"Earth Book" is correct because it appears on book covers, title pages and dust jackets.
Because we are currently studying Avalon and have reread the relevant Earth Book instalments, we now return to The People Of The Wind which provides the background for Hloch's Earth Book introductions. The short stories have established that Avalonian geography includes Hesperian Islands and a Coronan continent but the novel discloses several further details.

Kaor, Paul!
It's good to take note of even minor, easy to overlook misprints.
Ad astra! Sean
