A newly ensconced Empress, a scientist from the only known habitable planet and various other members of the Interdependency all must cope with the very end of their way of live and fight to save some remnant of humanity or, at the very least, get their own before civilization crumbles. After hundreds of years of relative peace and stability, the Flow is about to undergo a time of radical change, where all the connecting pathways of the empire will fall apart and new ones will develop, thus destroying the very fabric of the Interdependency and possibly dooming all of humanity since no one settlement can survive on its own. As its name implies, the Interdependency is a large group of space stations and enclosed habitats that rely on each other 100% as a way to avoid war and are ruled by a small but powerful group of guilds, medieval style houses and aristocracy and an Emperor. Set in the far future, The Collapsing Empire (side note, buy the paperback, it’s half price compared to all the other versions of the book) is set in the middle of a huge intergalactic human space empire, called the Interdependency, that owes its existence to the “flow” an aspect of reality that allows ships to enter a kind of alternate dimension to move fast than light something that would be impossible otherwise.
