‘And that’s where you come in,’ said Antonov, his grin growing wide. ‘You are an information specialist, are you not?’
‘We have been given an opportunity to study this civilization’s history,’ said Sachs. ‘It’s an incredible opportunity, and one we hope to share with the citizens of the Tian Di as our two societies become more fully reintegrated. But you have to tell me first whether you want to be involved.’
Luc gazed again at the sight of the Milky Way, a wreath of stars circling a stormy void.
‘Yes,’ he said.
THE END.
Acknowledgements
This time, particular thanks go out to my agent, Dorothy Lumley, who was the first to believe there was potential in my ratty first-novel manuscript way back in the Nineties. I should also take time to mention the sterling work done not only by beta reader numero uno, Jim Campbell, in helping get this manuscript into shape, but also by those hard-working people at Tor who keep me from putting my foot in my mouth more often than might be the case otherwise. Thanks, guys.
