The premise of this book: a sci-fi story dressed up as a shipgirl novel.
Sci-fi category: soft science fiction with a focus on the human element.
When setting the ships' speeds, I wanted to use the warp factor formula from Star Trek, but calculating the speeds with that formula would be a hassle, and you might not appreciate the effort anyway. So I took the simple, straightforward approach and set speeds in light-years instead.
The civilizations I've designed for this story are among the most advanced ideal forms of civilization imagined by humanity. Advanced civilizations therefore need speeds and energy sources to match.
The broader the target audience, the less hard-core the science fiction tends to be. The more technical detail there is, the narrower the audience. I could write a novel as rigorous as an academic paper, but I don't want my work to feel disconnected from reality. Besides, science fiction isn't the same as popular science.
As an author writing out of love, I welcome readers to actively join in and share their thoughts on the content of each chapter and passage.
This book will be updated regularly until the story is complete. It has a complete story outline.
