Reference: X compared to Y = possible Discrepancy?
Quantus:
The link on Maggie Sr. Ovaries is broken. I think I recall some of that discussion or at least the early parts, but was curious how it ended up
And purely for the sake of a complete reference, Larry Fowler's name changes to Jerry for one line in the scene in Death Masks, at least in my copy (its possible that they would have wanted to change this in later printings):
--- Quote ---Jerry paused for a moment, and then said, "Dr. Ortega, welcome to the show. You have a reputation as one of the premier analysts of paranormal phenomena in the world. You have proven that a wide variety of so-called supernatural occurrences were actually clever hoaxes. Can you tell us a little about that?"

Yeah it's the same in my copy as well.
Serack:
Harry's age when he first used magic/was adopted by Justin is referred to several times, and the first age given is different from most of the others.
Below are all the relevant quotes I can find. I think there is one where Harry says that Elaine was adopted a couple few weeks after he was, but I can't find it right now.
The gyst is that in Summer Knight Harry says that he and Elaine were adopted at 10. In Proven Guilty Harry says that Justin adopted him two weeks after his magic manifested. In Ghost Story he says his first time using magic broke the Iowa state high school long-jump record, and Ghost Story also says that he was 12 when he met Elaine.
There are also many mentionings of Harry's first lessons occuring around 13.

--- Quote from: PG Ch 41 ---"My fist time..." [/snip] It was maybe two weeks before Justin adopted me," I said. "I was in school and small. All elbows and ears. Hadn't hit my growth spurt yet, and it was spring

--- Quote from: SmF Ch 1 ---The memory of my first shielding lesson under Justin DuMorne wasn't a particularly sentimental one. "Baseballs."
Merciful God," Charity said, shaking her head. "How old were you?"
"Thirteen."

--- Quote from: GS Ch. 12 ---I broke the Iowa state high school long-jump record [/snip] I hadn't even gotten serious about puberty yet.

--- Quote from: GS Ch 20 ---And I was nearly thirteen, so that was really saying something.

"Flickum bicus!"

--- Quote from: GS ch 30 ---I hadn't really been interested in girls yet when I met Elaine. We'd both been twelve, bright and stubborn"

We also have this WoJ on the matter:
--- Quote from: WoJ ---How old were Eb and Maggie Sr when they first manifested a talent?
Same age as Harry–around 12 or 13.

I believe there was also a WoJ about the "Demonreach disintegration wall destroying Harry's amulet" problem in CD. I'll try and find it.

Jim: Okay, yes, Harry’s amulet, right.
Rasins: We saw it at the birthday party and never again….did it survive the circle on Demonreach?
Jim:Oh yes.
Rasins: Was it taken off and in his pocket?
Jim: I believe it was, it was with his gear right, he took it off and handed it to Michael and didn't I specifically mention it?
Rasins: You mentioned that he took his coat off but not the amulet.
Jim: Okay yeah, no but it had to have gone with the coat, although although if that wasn't written, that was an oversight during the editing process, which was a little rushed. I think the post-production on that was, from start to finish, I think it was 15 days, so there was a lot of back and forth and a lot of me not sleeping during the process.
