Because while it might help fill in a bit of backstory about the 'Verse in general, all it will do for Book is remove a lot of his mystique. Nothing they come up with will really meet anyone's expectations.<br /><br />Personally I reckon he was an Operative. But I know there's a lot to suggest he wasn't (for instance, if the film-Operative knew who or where he was and it's the reason that settlement got slaughtered, would he leave him to be killed - or rather left for dead without making sure - in battle? Conversely, the Operative might have just ordered that settlement Serbed because it was a known poert of call for Serenity, not realising a predecessor of his was in residence. But I digress). And just coming out and saying he was one would be a let-down no matter how well the framing story was told. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Fabrux</b> <br /><small>Member # 71</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2008,7,18,15,3,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">August 18, 2008</span> <span class="timeformat-0">03:03 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I'm hoping that this will be in the vein of "A Stitch in Time." <br /><br />Damn, I should re-read that one again. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Aban Rune</b> <br /><small>Member # 226</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2008,7,19,8,54,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">August 19, 2008</span> <span class="timeformat-0">08:54 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Well, they could give *some* of his backstory without giving away *all* of it.<br /><br />As to when this story takes place, it seems to happen soon after "Better Days".
