Chronological Placement Notes: Present day (2377) portions of novel take place immediately following those in Vulcan’s Soul Book 2: Exile. The ancient flashback scenes to the period of the Vulcan-Romulan “sundering” do not give dates.

Chronological Placement Notes: Present day portions of novel take place immediately following those in Vulcan's Soul Book 1: Exodus (which are given as "one year following the end of the Dominion War"). The ancient flashback scenes to the time of the Vulcan "Sundering" and arrival at the planets that would one day be known as Romulus and Remus do not give exact dates but the Star Trek Timeliners (referenced at the Memory Beta site) places the events as occurring in the year 326 A.D. (the Timeliners' timeline says "326-753").
