As I’ve collapsed Series One and Three into one it sort of seems that the story arch is really more of a continium than three distinct series. So the other Punk books will be called: 15)The Punk in Silver 16)The Punk in Gold 17)The Punk in Bronze 18)The Punk in Crom 19)The Punk in Plantinium […]
Why is the Computer Arceteck so worried about keeping precise back ups of the memories? The Elves are obsessed with immortality and one of the things they have persued is uploaded concousness into their computer system – now this does bring about some thorny questions as to what concousness actually is but lets say for […]
So the Elves had a Super Computer that was basically global it has three cores and is made of optical electronics – ie fibre optic stuff which though fragile if protected could last a long time. The Elves are used to working with glass due to the volcanoes so it was only natural that this […]
This is apparently my 100th post on this blog and as its only been around for a couple of months I thought I should mention it 🙂 I have alot more to write as well so have a feeling that I am going to end up with thousands of posts! I suppose I should really […]

Eeek this means more research as these societies have to stretch out through the generations meaning that things like the Knights Templar and their rivals have to […]
The Elves are Aquatic Apes but why did these higher primates go back into the water? The answer is that they lives on unstable volcanic islands and periodically found their world sinking into the sea. They would move onto the next island maybe living for long periods actually in the water. The volcanos though provided […]
I realise today with the forum saying its officially over just how much I’m going to miss NaNoWriMo – for the past month and for a while before that it has been my reason to get up. Now its over but the stories not but I want to do some more research and read what […]
