| Sure, Knolli. As it's still a work in progress, I can send it to you, or you can check it out on Baen's Bar's Slush Pile if you have access still. |

| Wow, so I've finished reading the story, and it really caught my attention. For the most part I couldn't put it down, but I had to at a few points. You really did your research, pebble bed reactors, Ion drives, gravity problems solved through continuous acceleration, I mean you really researched this thing out to make it a feasible possibility for the near future. I could tell you've really kept up on technologies. For the most part I never ran into any really "Dry" parts, which you seemed a little concerned about. I think you did a good job on balancing the technical aspects and the progression of your story. I did love the suspense you created by not indulging the reader on what the probe found out because of the misfortune. Can't wait to see the rest of the story completed. Excellent work! |

| Hello Amaysingstories! I've read it , and thanks again for sending it to me too! I can only only stand full behind the words of murf-miser, only one thing: Do you really believe, that they can keep it secret, that they had a successful starship-hi-jacking? It's a nice try with reinstating him into the military, but if ever even half of the truth comes out.... ;( Thank you again, And I can't wait for more...  |
