I am remembering another SF book where the female protagonist was on an ambulance ship associated with Core Central. All I remember now is that at the end of the book the main hospital of Core Central was doing illegal medicine in a hidden ward on the hospital. I am now reading Machine and having deja vu feelings about this other Core Central story. What is the other book I am remembering?
Elizabeth Bear
Hmm. I don't know. There is a James White Sector General novel called Ambulance Ship that I took some inspiration from but the plot is very different.

It's obvious that many of the characters in Eternal Sky are based on historical prototypes. But which of Genghis Khan's grandchildren is Temur, who seems to be the main protagonist, based on? Perhaps Temur is based on one of Jochi's sons? After all, Jochi died six months before Genghis Khan (some historians even believe he was murdered) and Otgonbayar died much earlier than his brothers, too.
