I just purchased the .pdf version of 1248 - Out of the Darkness ($12.99 at http://www.comstar-games.com). I've given it a quick once over and with a few minor exceptions, I gotta admit, I like it. A lot apparently happens between 1201 and 1248, including the potential extermination of humaniti(y). It does kind of put hash to a lot of the speculative "futures" I've either seen on these lists or actually gamed. On the other hand, it does answer a lot of lingering questions (the Empress Wave, the fate of Lucan, what's behind the Black Curtain, etc.).

Hi there Group
I successfully read through both of these new books, Out of Darkness &
Bearers of the Flame and thought they were well worth the effort. (I'm
mildly dyslexic!)
This is actually the first time I have read a collated version of the
Traveller history and have been enlightened, for which I am indeed
greatful to the author and all those helpers.
There are only minor errors in the text, which correction would
benefit from in IMO. Other than that, absolutely brilliant.
