AUTHOR'S NOTE:
There are two other novels in this series. One, the
longest of the five, is the wrap-up story: The Three-Cornered War.
I think of it as Lotta's book, although it contains several
subplots and a number of riveting characters.
(And of course the White T'swa and the T'swa play important roles.)
The other, The Kalif's War, is somewhat tangential to the three you've just read. Following directly upon The White Regiment, it is set almost entirely within the old Home Sector. It continues the Tain Faronya subplot, and contributes strongly to The Three-Cornered War. Niccolo Machiavelli would have approved mightily of the kalif.
To include those two stories in the same set of covers with these
three would have made this book more than 60 percent longer,
thicker, and heavier. Either that or resulted in tiny type,
and numerous optometrist appointments.
