Melissa Auburn was a Lyran Alliance-based author of The Black Widow: In Memoriam, a book that would top interstellar best seller lists for over a year around ca. 3063.[1] (The book's apparent subject was Natasha Kerensky, the feared and respected 'Black Widow', who had died in combat in late 3057.) Melissa Auburn is mentioned in the context of "members of the famous Auburn family, court historians on Tharkad for generations."
Notes
- Melissa Auburn is probably one of historian Misha Auburn's seven younger siblings who have not been named, and in that case would be one of Thelos Auburn's daughters; incidentally, only Misha Auburn was said to have any interest in history or politics, suggesting that Melissa Auburn, despite authoring a book about the 'Black Widow', could neither be considered a historian nor a politician.[2] Melissa Auburn may have been named after Melissa Steiner, who was born in 3010 and thus a year younger than Misha Auburn. (Thelos Auburn and later his oldest daughter Misha Auburn served as House Steiner's official court historians in their respective times.)
