The Thousand Emperors

Acknowledgements

This time, particular thanks go out to my agent, Dorothy Lumley, who was the first to believe there was potential in my ratty first-novel manuscript way back in the Nineties. I should also take time to mention the sterling work done not only by beta reader numero uno, Jim Campbell, in helping get this manuscript into shape, but also by those hard-working people at Tor who keep me from putting my foot in my mouth more often than might be the case otherwise. Thanks, guys.
