Once more into the map breach! I’ve read the questions and answers regarding the paucity of maps and rough geographical boundaries for any but one era of Recluce, and I have spent a not inconsiderable amount of time trying to work out from place names on ‘earlier’ maps the borders of realms in the Fairhaven Rising era, and to a lesser extent at the time of Lorn and Alyiakal. I understand that the publisher is unwilling to pay, but have you considered recruiting a fan with some graphics moxie (Alas, not I) and seeing if there is a volunteer who might be willing to create a map that you could post here online?
I have considered it, but my time and energy, especially at my age, are both limited, and to do what you’re suggesting would require a significant investment of of both time and energy (even though it might not seem so at first glance) to be accurate, and I prefer to address my efforts to writing.





Much as I look at the map and try to figure out where something from a different era would be in relation to the places shown, I would much rather Mr. Modesitt, Jr. spends his time writing books! I am far too addicted to them and look forward to each new release!
