What is "[[:Category:Concordance|In the time of the Sixth Sun]]"?

General Background Note! The cover blurb on [[SS:WOF|Wasteland of Flint]] indicates the events of the book take place only 500 years after the [[Méxica]] encounter the Japanese. This is entirely untrue! The Japanese refugees (the [[Nisei]]) arrive in North America in about AD 1200, and the events of [[SS:WOF|Wasteland]] (and following books) occurs in the AD 2400's. So over a thousand years have passed...

Unlike Oath of Empire, which is set in an alternate past, the Sixth Sun novels are set in an alternate future and past. The books of the [[Sixth Sun]] take place in the "Core" Universe Thomas developed for the games [[Skies of Tenocha - The Olmec Cat|Skies of Tenocha]], Core, Corewars, and [http://www.sjgames.com/ GURPS]:Hellspace. These books will be hard-SF archaeological mystery/space combat stories.

Two of the primary characters are [[Hadeishi|Mitsuharu Hadeishi]] (an [[Imperial Méxica Navy]] [[chu-sa|commander]], serving aboard the [[Imperial Méxica Navy]] [[Astronomer]]-class light [[cruiser]] [[Cornuelle|Henry Cornuelle]]) and a University of [[New Aberdeen]] [[Xenoarchaeology|xeno-archaeologist]], [[Anderssen|Gretchen Anderssen]]. They have some interesting adventures.

For the [[Lords of the Earth]] fanatics out there, the Core Universe is a projected future history of [[:Category:CampaignOne|Campaign One]].
