Justanotherbiblophile | 1814 comments I've read some things written by Stirling about his Draka series, but I can't find an actual, citable quote.

Basically, he's said (in print) that he based/imagined the Dominion novels on the 'worst of all possible worlds', or what-if 'everything had gone wrong', or 'every decision turned out badly'.

Apparently my google-fu is weak.

Also, not sure this should be in this category/folder as it's not really a book. :\

"So a thought came to me; suppose everything had turned out as badly as possible, these last few centuries."
