Questions Specifically for Jim, Part 3
Infovore:
Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. I think this is a question for Jim, although it may have already been answered somewhere and I just didn't find it. If so, sorry!
I've just finished reading Side Jobs and my question is about the story "Last Call". Is the title of the story a nod towards the Tim Powers book of the same name?
My thinking is that the novel Last Call is related to (click to show/hide)Dionysus and the sequel explicitly mentions both (click to show/hide)Maenads and sacramental drunken behaviour.
(I've marked as spoiler's above. I read the policy and don't think this is a spoiler but, I wanted to err on the side of caution)
In my head the connection just jumped out, of course that could quite easily just be in my head … ;)

Dear mr Butcher and anyone else reading this,
I am practicing posting as I have hardly ever been using this (or any other) forum before. How fortuitous that I have a whole bunch of questions (to be answered if/when you have the time and/or inclination of course)! Here is a warm up one:
How does Justine feel now?
When Harry met Justine in Bianca's laundry room she was mad with too much feelings. To me it seemed as if she had had that problem before and being with Thomas made it better. I got the feeling that this was one of the things that made her so attractive to Thomas from the start, for a creature who feeds on emotions a person like that must be like an all-you-can-eat free buffé. No one feeds on her now, as she is protected by True Love, but does she still have her emotional problems? Or did the huge chunk of her life that Thomas ripped out of her cure that?

According to Justine she is on medication, although I think that there is more to it then we are told. And Jim has also said that Thomas and Justine are happier then ever after Turn Coat.
