Iesu Christos, somebody bothered to write a critical anthropological study of the PPC? And they even cited sources?
WHY?!
I mean, really, if you're going to do something that serious, you might as well write about the Shining Path, or the Pre-Raphaelites, something that actually matters in the real world.
Somebody is taking themselves waaayyy too seriously.

Well, the idea piqued my interest enough that I'm considering trying to write a character from there- Race would be cool but I doubt I could pull it off. Probably someone from the Reich, or maybe from America.
Of course, since I haven't actually read any of the books, any attempt at this will be greatly inhibited. Hence why I'm asking for .rars.

- Take a shot each time someone writes "noticing" as "knowdicing".
- Take a shot each time someone cries tears of blood.
- Take a shot each time a pony does something that would be anatomically impossible with hooves.
- Take a shot every time you think the phrase "What the hell was that?"
Any more suggestions?

Word to what Silvor had to say. That just about sums up the series of events that led to the mission I'm currently writing. Except add in some power trips and disproportionate vendettas...yeah.
I draw a distinction between being critical (that is, pointing out flaws in a story) and just flaming. Even if a piece is utterly gawdawful, I'm going to explain why it's gawdawful—politely—if I take the time to review it.
None of my reviews, even the most scathing, are intended as personal attacks on the stories' authors. If I say "gargoyles are not sexist, and Angela is as far as it gets from a spoiled brat," or "giving Arthas Menethil a bastard love child conflicts with continuity"...it means no more and no less than that.
But from the way some of these fanthings take it, you'd think that it meant "how dare you have fun?" Or even "die in a fire and take your time with it, you miserable beast!" And quite frankly, that's really their major malfunction. (If your self-esteem is really that fragile, maybe you shouldn't be putting your stories up on the intarwebz for all and sundry to read...)

I was just wondering if anyone had a .rar of the series, or of any one of the books? Someone on 4chan mentioned it last night, which piqued my interest enough that I wound up on the Turtledove Wiki and spent all night reading.
Checked my Local Bookstore today, but they don't have any copies in stock. So I'm asking around on the 'Net.

At least, that's how I've always thought about it, Agents running random businesses and the like, and most of the funds going to Finance. I seem to remember it being implied somewhere that we have a hand in the real estate business, but I don't remember where that was.

Entire planets from continua such as Star Wars/Star Trek/ Doctor Who might well vanish through the plotholes. Also, aren't there thousands of Agents?

That, and there's all sorts of hordes and treasures throughout history that have been lost and never rediscovered. Personally, I like to think that we sent scuba-diving agents down to retrieve the riches of Glaurung's horde in Nargothrond after the Akallabeth, which provided the first major chunk of funding for the PPC.

Okay, this isn't related to your post, but since you're from the Finance Dept, I'll ask you the question currently nagging me: Who finances the PPC, anyway? All this technology, this infrastructure and those hundreds of agents must cost an awful lot...
