About This Book

A concordance-style reference offers alphabetized entries and cross-references that map the institutions, terminology, places, clans, technologies, and social customs of a far-future interstellar empire. Short entries provide planetary and sector statistics, clan histories and legal customs, military and administrative bodies, linguistic notes and pronoun usage, descriptions of drugs and medical practices, and speculative concepts such as alternate-universe travel and biological variants. The result is an encyclopedic worldbuilding resource that compiles background details and connective lore for stories set within a sprawling galactic polity.
