I also enjoyed this teaser of Mt Fitzroy & seeing our favourite characters again (sonofabitch!). If it is malleable in any form I do have one humble suggestion. It's the name of the flying machines, Puffins. Really, Puffins? Not what I pictured Kool calling them. So maybe Koolkopter or Wright Flyers if you want to show this lunatic's softer side.

Anyway, looking forward to see how all the modern day novels tie together.

And with the novels "tieing togther", can we get a timeline so we know how they do, and will, tie together?

As usual, I answer definitively, with no fence-straddling of any kind.

I will write MT. FITZROY, picking up the story after this "prelude." So for now, it's set in stone. However, as I write, sometimes I change things, which might make me go back and tweak this. Can't say for sure.

And yes, I have the story in my head. It's a rip-snorter. High action, even on the Sigler scale.

As for the timeline, it's a little screwy right now. I took EARTHCORE out of the timeline until I could re-write it. That's why Patrick O'Doyle is foreshadowed in ANCESTOR. The integrated timeline is based on when the stories come out in print. As odd as it sounds, EARTHCORE hasn't happened yet. MT. FITZROY will happen after EARTHCORE. Confusing. Sorry.

Sincerely,

Scott "The Demon Pornstar" Sigler

Thanks avinjer, I had seen this video of the Puffins before but never tied them together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhpPhvWvLgk Just need them some machine guns, but I think they might upset NASA - The rockets would be OK though

It reminds me of a poor mans Star-Fury from B5. Still a cool concept.

I can't wait for next in the series!
