	re:.0 You're talking two different series there. THE PNUME is the fourth and last novel in the "Planet of Adventure" series. The first three are CITY OF THE CHASCH, SERVANTS OF THE WANKH, and THE DIRDIR. The "Big Planet" series is only very loosely a series. Aside from BIG PLANET itself, the only novel in the series is SHOWBOAT WORLD, which is set on the same planet, but is otherwise unconnected. --- jerry

    The "Big Planet" series is only *very* loosely a series. Aside from
