I've checked into the Wordman site ( http://www.divnull.com/lward/sixthworld/no...ca/calfree.html ), which is helpful. But it doesn't cover any books released in the last two years, most notably Shadows of North America. Can I get a quick rundown of Los Angles references in the new books such as Dragons of the Sixth, etc?

The Pueblo Corporate Council invaded and is now in control of it. However, during the vents in YoTC, L.A. was hit by a big quake and the wall holding out El Infierno came down, releasing mobs of angry and violent people into the city, causing quite a problem. That's all I recall at the moment, never had much interest for that part of the world.

Let's see...........


There was a big earthquake and all the walls protecting the rest of the city from Los Angelos most dangerous slums fell down.

Predictable violence occured.

During this state of emergency the Pueblo Corporate Council sent in troops and took over the Mojave desert, Palm Springs, and Los Angelos.

Both the Ute nation and Aztlan seem to have taken issue with Pueblo's expansion into California. ( Though both are to involved in their own problems to do anything about it )

Probational citizenship has been offered to I assume the SINned residents of Los Angelos by the Pueblo nation.
