They are good books, and reading them is well worthwhile. I did. He has more than one future in there, and parts of them are not consistent. And it is fiction. Midgley 12:15, 27 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Biog

All these 'fact' tags in the header frankly constitute vandalism. Anybody needing confirmation of the topic of his master's thesis should read the handy biog on the back cover of any of his books! I'll keep looking for a link that replicates that info for those who are really sceptical and don't have a copy of the Stone Canal handy! Famousdog 17:15, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is 'The Sky Road' a different reality?

I'm not sure that 'The Sky Road' takes place in a different reality. The story is told by a descendent of the anti-technological outlaws who caused, or who became dominant after the Green Death as described in 'The Cassini Division' and about a hundred years later. The Tinkers are the computer users and makers who were defeated or banished in a mostly unrecorded way but who have been guiding humanity back towards space. The story is resolved quite well across the four books. Sfgreenwood 00:48, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
