This Paragraph "Another clause to the Praxis ensured a distinct social structure. The Shaa were below the Praxis, the Convocation were below the Shaa, the rest of the Peer society were below the Convocation, and had internal structure therein with individual clans being superior or otherwise inferior to each other, and then there were the Commoners, in essence the poor people. In a similar divide as seen here on earth, ten percent of the empires population (predominantly the Peerage) held ninety percent of it's wealth, and they weren't afraid to display it either."

Removed this clause: "and had internal structure therein with individual clans being superior or otherwise inferior to each other," As under the Praxis all peers are equal (hence the term peer) it is only in the peers own views that this internal clan structure exists. - AR

True, I had also mentioned that later in the section about the Peers so thanks forclearing that up.--Aurons Ghost 11:59, 29 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Should it be noted that Mr. Williams did not intend for Conventions of War to be the last title in the series (he actually had a 9-12 book arc planned) but was unable to continue it as his publisher(s) lost interest in the project? I have email correspondence with the author to confirm this info if that's needed. Also: it should be noted that a short novella taking place several years after Conventions of War titled Investments was published in the Between Worlds anthology some years back.

I also have an email correspondence with he author where he expresses his interest in continuing the series but is unable to because the publisher does not wish to continue the series and will not sell the rights to the series back to the author. Would it be worthwhile to publish that correspondence here? 2600:100D:B02F:C668:FCA8:1129:39EF:A20A (talk) 21:14, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
