I have a copy of "The White King's War" and have read it although not recently. However, it is in a NESFA collection which is packed for moving so I cannot refer to it now. However, it is easy to see that, in
A Circus Of Hells,
CHAPTER ONE, about Flandry's meeting with Tachwyr, and
CHAPTER THREE, about Djana's meeting with Rax, have been incorporated into the narrative of "The White King's War." Thus,
CHAPTERs
TWO and
FOUR-
TEN correspond to the original story with some necessary alterations. Further discussion can be found by scrolling through previous blog references to "The White King's War,"
here.
Seven Captain Flandry stories were collected as Flandry Of Terra and Agent Of The Terran Empire. This single Lieutenant Flandry story was instead incorporated into a novel.
In CHAPTER ELEVEN, we welcome the transition from the robotic mine on the lifeless moon, Wayland, to the Merseian base on the abundantly alive planet, Talwin. Flandry will, briefly, work with Merseians in a situation where they are not immediately in conflict: the xenological study of one of the two intelligent Talwinian species.

Kaor, Paul!
While I enjoy reading the second part of A CIRCUS OF HELLS, after Chapter Ten, I still wish we could have learned more about the Wayland AI. Chapter
Ten should have been at least four or fives pages longer, focusing on the "White King."
Ad astra! Sean
