Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

Your 'world of your own' have so few crew they might never meet one another while roaming the empty corridors, from their lonely bed in a barracks to their battlestation 100 decks lower. Never.
Imagine a Skyscraper the size of 1000 Empire state buildings. But it's a ship. Now, populate it with 100 people.
Also, make it combat effective and able to defeat boarders. With 30 marines.
Rereading Daniel Black. Image of Mara brushing Fernir to get shred fur off is adorable. Would felt cloak made from Fernir's fur retain some defensive power?
I just found out that you wrote the Daniel Black series which I love (I bought them of course) while reading cultivation quest and I can only say one thing.
You doing okay in there? You haven't made any posts anywhere in almost a week, and that's somewhat unlike you. Is there anything you want/need help with?
I just read perilous Waif. It was great. Saw many of the same sort of thoughts as ignition. Do you and Alivaril know each other or are fans of each other's work?
I looked at Perilous Waif but it seems like it's the first book in it's series but not the first in the verse or time line. Can you lay out how you books go so I know which is the first to read? I hate trying to read a book only to fine out it's book two and I ruined myself for book one.
Do you have any recommendations for stories which blend fantasy with more realistically handled feudalism like yours tend to? I've been craving more seriously handled feudalism of late and been disappointed by a lot of stories making it practically Disney style.
i just finished all four of your books, cant wait for the next one.
Are you already working on a new book or are you taking a pause after Perilous Waif?
Also wouldn't a PROCSIMA based fast travel lane system be something that could be developed? Ships can be accelerated by stations in Gamma then jump to Delta. This would give an extra boost in velocity for long distance journeys by providing an external source of delta-V.
