No links! What twists and turns this chapter is taking. One can only hope that we will get a peek of Ozeman, K and Williams, B blog. &&&&&&&& I thought there was a character index somewhere on this form. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Dark Knight A very belated welcome to this Finnverse of Space Character Blogs! Oh that would be good! I don't think I've found a character index for FSQ, SPACE ODDITY has one but I don't recall one for FSQ or TOBC. This is the eighth chapter in a 26 chapter book so I'm figuring theres a whole lot of stuff to happen still and perhaps HEO is just an introduction to some of the stories coming up (although the last interview with GAZ does state that some of TOBC is set up for the series so who knows?) But I'm guessing that if there's a whole underground society in Buffalo Commons that the population of the area is way more than Information Management thought which makes them sort of a joke doesn't it? Talk about bad intel before a military action!

well it was up when i checked it. short and sweet though less than satisfying. i can't tell if MaQ is a good guy or a bad-guy although the 'runner of guns' makes him bad i guess. is it possible that all the HEO's are actually going to come together later in the book?

i'm pretty sure MaQ is a bad guy, i did a search through whats posted so far and the first reference i found to him is in: www.titanrainbow.com/bks/tobc/bktobcd06.htmlQuote:He (Bear) did a triple check of the display, just as MaQ had taught him, taking into account wind and air temperature and anything else that would affect the shot. Bear wanted to rush, but held that desire back. and again in: www.titanrainbow.com/bks/tobc/bktobce06.htmlQuote:Winnie Coldwater peered nervously through his covering at the Squad of Troopers across the river. They were hovering over Bear's position, maybe they had even found him. MaQ said they wouldn't, which meant he lied to them. And if they found Bear then that meant they would find him as well, and that frightened Winnie because he had heard stories of what these soldiers were capable of. and later in that installment: Quote:But it meant actually killing someone. Real people, not the targets MaQ had them practice on. Each person that fell at his shots would be dead because of him. Winnie didn't know now if he could deal with that. and: www.titanrainbow.com/bks/tobc/bktobce07.htmlQuote:The fool woman (Dani Bennett) had no way of knowing their numbers. It wasn't just the few who had come down here. He (Chief Spottyrivers) knew that as it grew dark another party of twenty-four more would be coming down, each of them heavily armed and ready. MaQ had warned them it would be necessary. "We have others coming." And if that wasn't enough at the bottom of the last installment of EQUUS: Quote:Victoria cut her off, "Bennett, before you continue that thought consider this. These people have been cut-off from society for over a century, but the Cody Rifles they have were built only nine years ago." i think MaQ is not only a badguy but he could be the antagonist of this whole story!

wow Kitka, now that's research! I wondered how these story threads were going to come together and this really shows a lot. Despite what they've said perhaps not as many throw away bits are disposable, eh?
So assuming that HEO7 is also another "unconnected" vignette I wonder now which later chapter is going to pick up which part of HEO. Any guesses there?
I think we'll see OZEMAN, K in Nukes but that's a pretty safe guess.

ya, i don't think it's a pay-off chapter so i get what you're saying but i really like the vignettes, i think it's brilliant how much they're getting across in such a short space and can't wait to see the pay-offs.

Just read HEO 7 which, unless they surprise us, is the last segment of this chapter. I think we've got the pieces of the bulk of the conflict for the rest of this book now. I'm betting that HEO 6 and 7 are going to come together very soon and that the other parts of HEO (except HEO 1 of course) are going to interact. In a way this chapter was almost like the beginning of the story. Nice concept but I'm looking forward to regular stories again.
