Chapter 605
This chapter is a meta-textual note from the author Vernor Vinge, reflecting on the structure and content of the manuscript rather than advancing the narrative. It discusses decisions about setting, character consistency, and the conceptualization of the Blight's reach and influence. The author also contemplates the integration of Net News as a narrative device and the recognition of characters across different locations within the story's universe.
