Description

The anarchists of the Spooner Federation left Earth 1800 years ago, fleeing for their lives from the wrath of the States. A delegation has come to see how the mother world has fared since then...but the wrath that drove the Spoonerites across the black void has not abated, as exobiologist Richard Fiammare and paleolinguist Victoria Hallanson will soon discover.

Review by: Brent Meske on Feb. 06, 2013 : star star star star star
It's so refreshing to finally find a short story on Smashwords that holds its own as a story, even if it's supposed to be attached to a series. The characters, events, history, and world are fleshed out enough that I can put pieces together without being forced to read the series itself. That alone should have given 'The Last Ambassadors' top marks.

However, I'll add this: this story's got good ideas, fully realized sci-fi that sounds really cool and maybe only a tiny bit farfetched. It's polished, begins and ends, and has a really nice premise as well.

Thanks for this, Fran.
