Dreadnaught Report

Most of the readers have now weighed in, and there have been some good suggestions, some of which we are even going to use ...

First of these is to include a dramatis personae, up front, so people can keep track of who is whom.

We'll also include a glossary of terms, in the back, and the map, some version of which will probably be in the front.

Reaves and I have discussed some other changes, included among which is the death of a viewpoint character. Hate to do it, but it sets up something in the next book, and no, it's not Ven.

Here's the character list:
