-There is an overall story arc to the T-Space series, beginning with the early missions (such as [[Alpha Centauri: First Landing]], continuing through the Carson & Roberts novels ([[The Chara Talisman]], [[The Reticuli Deception]], [[The Eridani Convergence]] and the upcoming [[The Pavonis Insurgence]]).

 The latter in turn are the prelude to "the war novels", which are only loosely defined at this point.  The rise of the [[Velkaryans]] on Earth and within T-Space vaguely parallels the rise of the Nazis in 1930s Europe, but there are also the mysterious [[Kesh]] and [[Deghidesh]].  These will be set some time after the Carson & Roberts era, and technology will have advanced some.  The climax of the series will come after that, and will resolve some of the larger questions raised (for example, who or what the [[Terraformers]] were).

 *This will be a bridge between the ending of ''Sawyer's World/The Return'', the Jason Curtis era (in particular, the story "Renee"), and the Carson & Roberts era. It covers the expansion of settlement on that planet, in particular the squidberry industry, it's subsequent economic collapse (in ''[[Kakuloa: The Downhill Slide]]'' and ''[[Kakuloa: Crash and Burn]]'') when pharmaceutical companies learn to synthesize the extracted drug, (the rise of the Velkaryans starts to happen here) and finally the resurgence of the economy with other industries (in ''[[Kakuloa: The Tide Turns]]''). There are also some looks at what is happening elsewhere in T-space in that timeframe.

 "In progress" means at least a first draft or outline plus substantial notes have been written, although it could be closer to publication just without the pub date set.  For in progress works, titles are necessarily tentative as they are subject to change in the publication process.
