Okay, I reread the flash back part with he who walks behind. There is nothing I could find which shows that Harry had give the outsider a nickname or something like that. So if the speculation that Harry is some sort of a namer is true, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with his potential powers over outsiders. Please inform me if I miss something.

Romance is schlocky and for chicks who can't get dates (yes, I am being overly harsh and simplistic, sorry). There are only two kinds of romances a guy like me likes in their fiction. The first is a long time couple trying to make things work after being together so long. Think Everybody Loves Raymond. The second is a guy who through hard work, can do attitude, honesty, and good nature scores a chick outside his league. When a character is one of the most powerful humans on the planet, the outside his league thing is off the table.
So, give me a Dresden continually confounded by love and all on his own trying to right by the people in his life. I really do hope the "Die Alone" death curse is still in effect.
On another note, does anyone think the voice at the end of Changes might be an angel of death? At first I thought it was Lash, and then I thought is was Mab, but upon rethinking the book, the angel of death, like the one waiting to take Forthill's soul, makes a lot of sense as well.
Who knows, Bob sealed away Evil Bob, and then permanently split with him creating Evil Bob in the first place. I suppose if the two rejoin there would be a battle to see who would take control and seal the other away. More likely, Evil Bob remains as a villain and thorn in Harry's side.
Presumably right away, but GS did the time skip thing to start, so it might have done it again. Dresden's revival is in the hands of 3 nigh on immortals: Mab, Uriel, and Demonreach. A month or a year is all relative to them.
Well, Dresden did form a simbiotic relationship with Demonreach in Turn Coat, turning it into a Spirit Sanctum or something similar. We don't know anything more than that, except the White Council views the island as special.
The Summer Knight killed in Book 4 lived in Chicago. I imagine Dresden will be able to establish a residence in Chicago and use the Ways to go to the Nevernever when needed.

Them's fighting words, haha. If that were true, then why would girls feel the need to drag their boyfriends to chick flicks?
And cold, man, cold.
While I hope (and trust) that romance won't become the center point of the DF, I do hope that Harry ends up happy with someone (or at least happy with friends). I took the "Die Alone" thing to be less referring to only romantic relationships than complete isolation (I mean, hey, most of the people in the series are not going to live as long as Harry can). I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
MX:
Bah, Harry should live on DR when he needs to be in Chicago. Any other time he can tell whomever of the Winter Court to give him ar room. I mean, who else other than Lea or one of the Queens might survive tat argument?
Of course, we might find out the other side of DR is hospitable for Harry and just as much of a power boost to Harry there as on the island.

-so if Bob lost the fight to Evil bob would it be possible for Evil Bob to "eat" bob and gain all the knowledge
--- End quote ---
Since Bob cut off that "part", wouldn't Bob be bigger and stronger? Like in a fight, who would win, your amputated left hand (Evil Bob) or all the rest of you (Bob)?
Morgan's sword - so it just sits in the scrap pile until Luccio or someone gets their skill back?

--- Quote from: huangjimmy108 on July 28, 2011, 02:06:40 PM ---I think someone in this forum had speculated before that maybe that Harry is some sort of Namer. The end of Ghost story, where Yuriel seems to be really upset when Harry shorten his name to Yuri but blink and said that calling him Mr. Sunshine is appropriate is quite a circumstancial evidence on that theory. What do you guys think?
--- End quote ---
the "El" Part of any angel name means God (i.e. MichaEL, GabriEL, RaphaEL, et.) so to remove that is highly disrespectfully bordering on blasphemous. And I'm inclined to think angels take a dim view of blasphemy.
also Uriel = Light of God
Without the EL he would just be light and ymmv on this one but The Light is one of the the references to Lucifer so he would be really have a reason to demand his full name
