Their next Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jtas3/traveller-rpg-the-singularity-campaign?
"Thousands of years ago, a godlike alien intelligence was found floating in a derelict ship, lost in the depths of a stellar abyss. Now trapped in an Imperial Research Station, Naalir has awoken and it wants the Travellers’ help.
Singularity is an epic campaign that takes your Travellers to places they never imagined they would — or could — go; the glorious worlds of the Core: the throneworld of Capital, the vast archives of Reference, and the opulent worlds of the Sylean Main. As the campaign kicks into high gear, the Travellers voyage by means they never thought possible, traversing not just the Core, but the whole of Charted Space.
Covered in three stunning hardbacks, Singularity delves into the themes of the ethics and implementation of artificial intelligence, the nature of humanity, how these might coexist and could change one’s perception of reality."

The Kickstarter is now live, and goodness, it's tempting. It's right up my street!
But I know I'll never run it (or play in it), so it would just be for the story and the ideas.
If only it were a series of novels!
Hard to tell from the pdf extract from the sourcebook whether the writing style would irritate me. From what I've read so far, it seems not.
One thing preventing me from backing it at the moment is that the companion isn't available at the pdf-only level. (I don't care about the soundtrack.) But it's early days yet...

That's a good answer. Mind you, maybe you can sign up on that basis?

I suspect I will back it in the end.
