But do we know that Dragaera is supposed to fit into Earth's timestream in some way? Deverry is in an alternate universe but links up within a larger multiverse to real Earth; is Dragaera in the same universe or even the same multiverse as Earth? Maybe there is no Earth in any part of the multiverse associated with Steve's books. (Although here I think a reference in Teckla to some socialist books might undermine this objection). Shawn
