INDEX
Mosbunall editors have eliminated a print version's Index when building an eBook because the eReader's Search Command fulfills the same function (although not yet as pleasingly as one might wish). We've included Bob's original Index in this eBook (without the now-meaningless page numbers) as a handy reference to themes and terms in Cosmic Trigger I that the reader may use in a search. We've noticed that simply scanning this alpha-linear list offers a unique view of this extraordinarily multi-dimensional narrative. The number after each entry signifies the number of pages or spreads referenced in the Print version. — The MGT.
