Technic History: Volumes And Instalments

The seven volumes of The Technic Civilization Saga, which is Baen Books' omnibus collection of Poul Anderson's History of Technic Civilization, are uniform in length but not in numbers of instalments collected in each volume because the instalments vary so much in length.

I: 11

II: 7

III: 6

IV: 3

V: 6

VI: 4

VII: 6

Volumes I-II average 9 instalments per volume whereas III-VII average 5.

Volumes I-II cover a historical cycle from interplanetary exploration in "The Saturn Game" to the beginning of the end of the Polesotechnic League in "Lodestar." III goes from League to Empire. IV-VII take a long time to get through the life of Dominic Flandry but eventually takes us into a much further future! In any case, it is all the best future history series, in my opinion.
