Stokes was recruited from her Boston University academic work by the charming Tristan Lyons to do lucrative work translating documents and reporting any common patterns for DODO. The Diachronicle, written by Melisande “Mel” Stokes in 1851 London, introduces her as a 21st-century linguist stranded unwillingly in the past, just before the Great Exhibition of 1851 effectively brings an end to magic.
These materials chronicle the establishment of DODO, a black-budget operation created to restore magic to the present through the application of science. The engaging collaboration between bestseller Stephenson ( Seveneves) and historical novelist Galland ( Crossed) is presented as five volumes of collected materials, ranging from handwritten journals and letters to printouts of PowerPoint presentations and white papers.
