The Warrior Codices

(From False Colors, by William Forstchen and William Keith; except the 8th Codex, by yours truly (chuck_starchaser).)

Other references to the Codices:

False Colors, page 211:

Lord Murragh says to Geoffrey Tolwyn, “The Codices teach us that the first duty is to the race…”

Ex-Karga senior pilot Jorkad lan Mraal suggests to Jason Bondarevski a direct brain connection to fighter controls, to overcome the clumsiness of his artificial arm. Jason says “thanks but no thanks”, paraphrasing…

False Colors, page 255:

“The thing is,” Bondarevsky went on, “a lot of us don't like to be forced to admit to something like this. I've got a machine doing the work of a limb, and I'm damned glad to have it, but I'd far rather have the original. And the last thing I want is to lose my humanity more than I already have by plugging myself into my cockpit like one more onboard system. I learned to fly by my gut, and I'd rather keep on doing it that way even if I have to work a little bit harder at it. Do you understand?”

“I believe I do, Captain,” Jorkad said slowly. “Your sentiments are reminiscent of some of the passages in the Seventh Codex. You've given me much to think about.”
