And I'll add that... It. Is. Awesome.
I might be suffering from the latest short story is the best short story itis. But if we don't count the novellas it's probably the best short story yet. (granted the others have moments just as good) It's good on multiple levels.
I say again. It. Is. Awesome.

SHUT UP SERACK!!
I am SO jealous of the Betas.
STIFLE IT!!
I'm kidding of course, about the quieting down. Not the jealousy part. *hard glare*

I used to be jealous, until I realized that with every book they spend MONTHS unable to discuss it with anyone. After getting each chapter slowly doled out like a Dickensian soup kitchen. Imagine wallowing in your own theorycraft that long with no release. Imagine having each new novel carefully dosed out like the opioid it truly is, no binge reads allowed...
I think that's where some of Serack's huge theory dissertations come from. It's just a different kind of torturous waiting.

LOL .... I never thought of that.

Nope, still jealous.

Anyway, I get your complaint, but even though there will be plenty sympathetic to it, a significant portion of the audience here will be more sympathetic to Jim. And respond accordingly. After all, the term "fan" comes from "fanatic."
Further defense of either viewpoint isn't really necessary.

Do we get an information dump at all?

The poor guy, when I speculated before SG that Deirdre wasn't going to make it and Nic would blame Harry (even though I was wrong on the means; something about a B-plot of black court antagonists, given the previous pattern of vampire plots in every third novel) it must have been frustrating only being able to say "hmm ... interesting".
