The Rifter's Covenant: Exordium 4
The fourth Exordium book is out, with the fifth coming out next month.
The entire thing has been rewritten, shifted to omniscient POV, which streamlined a great deal of a massive story with a huge cast. We'd had a great deal of trouble with the enforced time jerkiness of distant third, which was de rigueur back in the eighties and nineties.
Since that time we've both learned a lot about writing, and there has been a lot more understood about the science and the tech. Dave did some twiddling on one battle, otherwise that aspect was still pretty tight, only the prose needed corresponding tightening.
Mostly, it was tremendous fun to be back in that world!
