Mutabilis
Introduction
This is a short story based on Oolite, the sequel to 'Status Quo' by Drew Wagar.
"When a series of linked murders forces GalCop to outlaw the shadow organisation known as 'The Dark Wheel', a mysterious top secret document must be found in order to stave off a Galactic conflict. The document contains a devastating secret; the key to power, domination and control. A secret as old as space itself, the location of the legendary planet Raxxla."

Cracking start - I'm hooked already!
Ohh. That was brilliant. I really like the tension that builds up at the end of the chapter.
Absolutely superb! A gripping plot from the start, characters and scenes that are the result of a very creative imagination and lucidly expressed. Can't wait for the next chapter!
Excellent! Love it. I eagerly await the next chapter!

Notes
Mutabilis is set two years after Status Quo, in the year 3140. This is two years before the unofficial Oolite timeframe of 3142, and 15 years after the events of Elite itself. Dates are based upon David Hughes' unofficial (but excellent) timeline.
