Non-notable book series. I can find an entry on the Internet Speculative Fiction Database, an open wiki, as well as a few blogs. This topic is so obscure that I'm getting mostly hits for John Bell Hood's Army of Tennessee. Hog Farm Bacon 01:56, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

- Merge and redirect to the list of works on the author's bio at Christopher Evans (author). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:08, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: - I oppose a merger in the current state, given that as of this comment, most of the content is unsourced, and that which is sourced is sourced to a wiki. I don't like the idea of merging content that isn't reliably sourced. Hog Farm Bacon 05:11, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- While in principle I totally agree, and I often view merged of unsourced material as uncontroversial, pretty much everything in that substub seems like non-controversial obvious information and a one-line plot summary; the official blurb is likely longer. Since most of the times plot sections are uncited anyway, merging this is not really likely to be a major issue. Not that deleting this would be any major loss either, but in this case I don't see a merge as a particularly objectionable course of action. But as long as we are discussing this, I'll note that the current bio of the author needs improvement. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:51, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

- Merge and redirect as Piotrus suggests. The plot summary does not require inline citation, and the rest of the information is supported by this source. ~ oulfis 🌸(talk) 05:59, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- Merge' the two or three sentences per above. It's not sourced enough to create a new article, but it's at least verifiable to include in part of the author's list of works. Archrogue (talk) 18:37, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
