Mirror Universe "Glass Empires"

Has anything been revealed yet as to the nature of the expansion of The Sorrows of Empire? Is there more at the end that shows the results of the big plan, or is it fleshing out the details in the same basic narrative?
 
believe Mack said the latter was the case. more details on what was going on at the time of the Spock narrative or other POVs on his actions...
 
^^Where do you get that number?

"Parallels," I'd imagine.


"We are receiving 285,000 hails," etc.

Okay, but why assume that number represents the entirety of the multiverse, rather than simply the number of parallel realities being encountered at that moment (especially considering that they were continuing to multiply)?

It's within the bounds of possibility that it was meant as a joke.
 
I hope somewhere down the line we see the pay off for what Mack set up.
Agreed, although it might make the MU alot less interesting if all we get is an other UFP. But on the other hand the transition and reactions to it could probably be pretty interesting.
 
^ Now that's just crazy talk!!!!!!!!

Naw, if it was a joke he would have said "What do you do with an elephant with three balls?...You walk him and pitch to the rhino." :guffaw:

...sorry, just channeling Hot Shots! there for a minute...

Besides, 285,000 would technically be 28.5 myriad universes.

As Dayton said, I was referring to Parallels.

And just for the record, I DON'T assume that number represents the entirety of the multiverse. Just the number we currently know of. Hopefully there IS more. That way, we'll get more books on the subject.

I reiterate: I hope Myriad Universe anthologies become a yearly event.

And I hope Christopher continues to be employed as their writer.

Oh yes, and Dayton too.

Edit: And I just realized I posted in the wrong forum. But I'm not too mad at myself, because I hope there are more Mirror universe books too.

I think KRAD has a monopoly on random, confusing baseball references... ;)

Base Ball? What is this alien game? is it an old colonies form of Cricket by any chance? :rommie:
 
You really should, all three stories are at least good. And IMO the TOS story is simply amazing. The second book is pretty good too. My favorite in that collection was KRAD's Voyager story.


KRAD's Voyager story was in the second volume, Obsidian Alliances. Thought someone would have noticed that :eek:.
 
FYI: The World Series is actually named after the newspaper that once sponsored it.

IIRC, that explanation is a myth.

It is a myth. It was originally known as the World's Championship Series, and it was called that because at the time, there was essentially no professional baseball outside of North America, so the North American baseball champions really would've been the world's baseball champions.
