Thanks Steve!

While Jordan’s self-referential tech-nerdiness is the novel’s most irksome narrative, he seems to have a knack for spelling out the etymology of strange technology: In fact, As the Mirror Cracks would probably make for a better alternative history of virtual reality than a sci-fi novel
I think your next novel should be about free-paper journalist who chokes on a thesaurus while having a bad analogy embolism. j/k

BTW, I have finished Coyote Horizon, and The Lens is next.

I certainly hope I do not find it to be better as an alternate history of space ship maintenance and alien culture diplomacy manual than a sci-fi novel!
