(click to show/hide)*The Cubs are doing well the year of the story- so probably 2007 or 2008.
*Harry mentions having a "moose"- possibly a reference to Mouse, or something that went over my head.
*No mention of Molly (in the preview).
*Little Chicago is in existance (setting it between ?? and Changes)

According to Priscillie's announcement of the book it's in, Naked City, "Curses" occurs between Small Favor and Turn Coat. So there's that.

(circa 1550's, according to Merriam-Webster.....)

Yep, and some of us want to have archaic and eat it.
The way that feels right to me is that a box of chocolates is something you give someone, a barony is something you gift someone with. Different scales.

FWIW, Jim wrote the story in 2008. :D

--- Quote ---I'd looked on a little tree-spirit being with my Sight when I'd been about fourteen, the first time it had happened to me, and I still had a perfect picture of it in my head, as though I was still looking at it, a little cartoonish being that was part lawn gnome and part squirrel.

Interesting to note that, according to the timeline/Harry's comments about Justin's training, Harry learned how to make a shield before he learned to use/control his Sight. Is this a reflection of Justin's priorities or is it just that the Sight is something that comes in with age? 'The first time it had happened to me' suggests the latter, but...I can't think that Justin was all that interested in having his apprentice(s) able to see things as they truly were.

Yeah, I'm a proponnet of Storm Front being set in 2000- makes chronology a ton easier.
Also, one thing I picked up re-reading Death Masks- it's an election year. (DM 116). Does that help any?
EDIT: City elections are every four years- 2003 being the most likely (too late in the series to be 1999 or early for 2007)- making 2000 Storm Front.
I HAVE SOLVED THE TIMELINE CONUNDRUM. Nobel Prize, please.
