Exactly! And whether whatever kind of...Kaor, Paul!<br /><br />Exactly! And whether whatever kind of society or state the "Angels" could speak for them all. Or at least most of them.<br /><br />And, in "Kyrie," we see Poul Anderson's owe take on "energy beings."<br /><br />Sean<br />Sean M.

I do wonder how that series might have developed if Anderson had written more Yamamura books.<br /><br />And we still don't know for SURE if non human alien rational races exist on other planets. I, personally, believe they do. Because I find it totally irrational to think our galaxy, never mind all other galaxies, has only one intelligent race. More than a hundred billion stars and only one planet orbiting around one star, has an intelligent race?????<br /><br />At least Fladndry was decent enough to object Abrams' proposal vis a vis Persis d'Io. And I don't think Abrams much liked it either, because he did say the Intelligence Corps would give her some assistance if this maneuver caused her to break up with Lord Hauksberg.<br /><br />But did Blish's Angels/energy beings have some kind of nation, authority, or gov't which could claim to speak for them? If not, there would not be much use in trying to make a treaty with them.<br /><br />Still a bit stuck on my "Night Piece" essay. I'm feeling the need to reread that tough story.<br /><br />SeanSean M. Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973738112230622557noreply@blogger.com
