I too am a big fan of Alicia et al. I'm on my second copy of the book as I reread it so much. I too would love to see a sequel or more. Short stories might work as well. But I don't think we need to prequel anyone. Alicia has a new job, but "the team" would like to eliminate that drug trade. How do they do that? Over 1800 worlds, and only ONE bad governor? Only ONE plot to set up a mini-Empire? Alicia has now frustrated two Rish plots (three if you include supporting Treadwell/Howell). Might they put a "contract" out on her (or whatever the Sphere does)?
Technical issues might be interesting. Can Tis read a Rish or a Quarn? Can they feel it when she attempts it?
As the Rish have some molycircs now (thank you Howell), can they field a few synth'd Rish?
If the story of the true source of the FALA comes out, do some Rogue worlds change sides? Alicia is a friend, might they work with her (push over Out-Worlds)? Is she welcome on Ringbolt? On Mathison's World? Does the homestead on Mathison's become a Cadre site? Cadre Recon site for the sector?
Does Uncle Arthur start using her as a #2 doing Recon on hot spots before he gets there? (She is ex-Recon and current Justice Ministry.) Does she work with her Wasps? Does she assist Charlie Company?
Given her unique status of having received an appology from the Emperor, does he consider her one of his personal "special projects" people? Particularly if she keeps her disguise active and prowls the back alleys (back planets?) of the empire.
I'd be delighted to see any combination of these and others dealt with by Team Fury.
