The OFloinn's random thoughts on science fiction, philosophy, statistical analysis, sundry miscellany, and the Untergang des Abendlandes
Reviews
A beautifully told story with colorful characters out of epic tradition, a tight and complex plot, and solid pacing. -- Booklist, starred review of On the Razor's Edge
Great writing, vivid scenarios, and thoughtful commentary ... the stories will linger after the last page is turned. -- Publisher's Weekly, on Captive Dreams

Was Montaigne a Klingon?
Was the great humanist really a non-human? TOF is suspicious. Look at that forehead! Is that not a Klingon ridge? Inquiring minds want to know.
Perhaps not a full-blooded Klingon...could be that his father was part of an exploratory team under the reign of the Old Kings, and fell in love/had his way with an Earth woman, thus producing Montaigne?
And also proving the panspermia theory - there's bio-compatible humanoids on almost every planet, and nobody asks, 'How did this happen?'
