Index

Seeds of Disaster wouldn't be a hyper-text novel if you could read it just sequentially. Therefore, I have provided other ways of looking at the novel and its contents through these indexes. Look around. See how many different ways you can get into the action and characters, the world behind the scenes, and the languages, pattern and verbal, that make it all come together.

1. Main — various aspects of the novel that don't fit into one of the larger categories below

2. Cast — aspects of the major and minor characters, their appearances in the novel, and things about them that I needed to keep track of while writing. You can see more description — and fewer bullet items — on this page about the Cast

3. Ganj Dareh — Phoebe's hometown and the center of all the action

4. Language — the immigration of terms from other languages and technology into this basic English as it might be spoke in the future

5. Pattern Languages — the application of CES' Pattern Language (see Acknowledgments) as well as Yeibichai's own extensions and permutations of their pattern languages

6. tek — all those neat SFnal gadgets that maybe, probably, might be used in a future society

7. Timing — how events and discussions of events fit together

8. Yeibichai — this new society, humans starting afresh on another planet
