Irene, you mentioned: ZACATHANS as protagonists : Brother to Shadows, A204 : Dare to Go A-Hunting, A185 [Zacanthan] : Star Rangers, A16 : Uncharted Stars, A78 To my recollection, they also appear or are mentioned in (among others) : Lord of Thunder, A48 : Dare to Go A-Hunting, A185 : Ordeal in Otherwhere, A54 : Forerunner Foray, A99 : DERELICT FOR TRADE, A228 : Forerunner, A145 : Forerunner: The Second Venture, A160 : The Zero Stone, A73 : Uncharted Stars, A78 As well as Star Guard, where the introductory sequence is apparently from a lecture given by a Zacathan. The reptilian humanoids are the natives of the planet Zacan, as we are all well aware; what I would like to know is whether the race name should properly be Zacathan or Zacanthan, or if we should assume that one spelling applies to one thread or group of threads in the omniversal timescheme and the second to another? Just one of those bits of trivia that occupy my idle hours. Respectfully, Michael B. Caffrey Stellae Nostrae Sunt!
