--- Quote from: Katarn on June 21, 2011, 03:43:33 PM ---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.

Of course, Jim's chronological planning skills leave a lot to be desired (see: The Great Copperfield Retcon and Molly and Isana's TARDISes), so I'm sure there is information in the books that contradicts this. However, it's awesome to see some solid evidence for putting Storm Front in 2000, other than sheer numerological convenience! Thank you!

Yea, I know it's not definite with retcons and such (there was some example from SK and days of the week I recall), ie Copperfield and Molly's age (I had to google Isana lol- really need to pick that series up when I'm going through DF withdrawal), but it helps for those who like to have every date nailed down to some extent.

Going off of SF=2000, this would likely be (in-universe) as the 2009 season (9 ASF), where the Cubs still almost took the division title. (I know Jim wrote it in '08, but chronologically it fits anywhere in '07-'09 (all decent seasons for the Cubs).
EDIT: Sorry for double post.

(click to show/hide)*Harry mentions having a "moose"- possibly a reference to Mouse, or something that went over my head.

If one were to briefly describe Mouse to a person who had never seen or heard about him before, would you explain him as comparable to a small timid rodent or to a large, shaggy, sometimes dangerously bellicose critter?

--- End quote ---
Harry began to build Little Chicago not long after he began to receive Warden pay. Luccio made him a warden in Dead Beat.
