But my glossary also shouldn't tell the reader more than I want him to know. A big part of my story will be the mystery and the gradual unveiling of the "Big Picture". This is one of the things I love myself, namely being driven on through the series by a craving to find out how it's all connected; the various factions and characters, the villains' master plan, the back stories of characters and civilizations, and the entire cosmos.
So my plan is that the glossary will be small in the first book and then grow throughout the series as more information is revealed.
