I recently read the Blood on the Stars series by Jay Allan and really enjoyed the idea of a post-Golden Age human civilization that has splintered into factions and is now at war with itself. I really want to explore this theme further (rediscovering old technology, how did the collapse come about etc) in my own book, but I'm afraid of borrowing too closely until it basically becomes stealing his concept, or perhaps worse, fan fiction. To be clear the only element I want to keep is the theme of a post-apocalyptic space-faring human civilization: virtually everything else will change. How do I know where the line is between inspiration and plagiarism?
