In sf, we are glad that Poul Anderson did not write only the Technic History because then we would not have had, e.g., Tau Zero, World Without Stars or Genesis. In any case, Anderson had to begin his future historical writing with (something like) the Psychotechnic History before two otherwise independent series coalesced into the Technic History. However, I would still have preferred less of some other things - maybe a shorter Harvest Of Stars series and no For Love And Glory? - and more Technic History: maybe the Aycharaych novel suggested to Anderson by the British sf bookseller known online as ppint?

In Lancaster, we celebrate Chinese New Year with a dragon in the street and a concert at the Grand Theatre this evening so we will shortly make our way there while I remember Adzel and hope that our Earth will survive into a more civilized future.
