Quote from: Funt Solo on 05 July, 2021, 03:37:50 PMWith the Nemiverse, I was toying with the idea of doing a Millsverse icon, but it's so all-encompassing - where sometimes the narrative links are stretched. I'm not sure. The list *feels* like it would be vast. Let's see...

ABC Warriors
Blackblood
Deadlock
Flesh
Invasion!
Disaster 1990
Joe Pineapples
Nemesis and Deadlock
Nemesis the Warlock
Ro-Busters
Satanus
Savage

Not too bad, actually. For some reason, I though that list would be longer.

Torquemada got a standalone story or two - plus another labelled Torquemada the God.


Quote from: AlexF on 14 July, 2021, 07:05:58 AMI'd say we're about due for a new story about people in future(ish) Britain coping with a sudden, country-wide disaster of some kind...
they definitely do seem to bring the weirdoes out of the woodwork.

Also, I vote 'no' to putting the Millsverse icon on Disaster 1990, at least until the point that some writer has a going at telling a 'flooded brtiain' story and Pat gets cross with them for doing it.

And to mix things up further - there's one or two books of Flesh which weren't written by Mills either...

I've got those listed under [Torquemada].

Chronocide by Dabnett & Satanus: Unchained by Grennie. I like both of those - and they're still Millsverse, I reckon - just with guest writers. (Perhaps uninvited guests from a certain person's perspective, but ho-hum.)

Hey Funt Solo. This Project is amazing! Congratulations.
I found it because I was looking for some clarity on Judge Corey. I've been reading Volume 1 of the Judge Anderson Psi Files (and really enjoying re-acquainting myself with these early stories (so dark!)).
In that book Corey appears in Helios, then Leviathan's Farewell (which moved me as much as it did first time I read it all this years ago), but then (confusingly) in Triad (part 7).
I've been trying to work out the publication order, and whether it was just ordered incorrectly in the Psi Files collection. Or whether Alan Grant just forgot that he'd killed her off! Because Leviathan's Farewell is from a SF Special it's hard to reconstruct the order (well it is for me). I could dig out the progs and find the cover dates etc, but I'm not sure this idle pondering warrants it.
Does anyone remember thinking she'd magically come back from the dead when they first read these?
Aaanyway, she's got at least one appearance missing from your table, not that I'm criticising. As I say, I'm extremely impressed with the database!

Funt Solo

Thanks for the info, Grobbendonk - it's much appreciated. My link-ups are a combination of Barney and my own research, so there are definitely going to be things I've missed.

As far as I can make it out, Leviathan's Farewell would have been published about 17 weeks prior to Corey's appearance in Triad. I suppose we can assume that Alan Grant wrote Triad first and Farewell second (given what occurs), but then things got muddied up in the editorial schedule, but who knows?

I'll adjust the A-Z with the new info. on my next maintenance rotation.

I've just re-read Anderson's second volume in the Mega Collection, and Leviathan's Farewell follows Triad in there, which clearly makes more sense.

And many kudos to Funt, the ABC is a wonderful thing.

Just to make sure Funt, if your calendar is aligned with Venus yearly cycle then you will be done next week? Awesome can not wait !!!!!
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.
