The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers

Harry's paralysis long term foreshadowing?

I do need to re-read that one if that will be the split point. Although seems to me there are more life changing-ier decisions that he could've picked, though(his characters, not my business.) love is a great one. I fall back to the Buffy episode where Buffy never comes to sunnydale, also the Doctor Who episode where donna makes the wrong turn. Anyone have any HUGE moments that without Harry there; or Harry making an evil choice would have massive implications?

I'm beginning to believe that my theory of many cycles may apply.  We will get to see many different pivot points in the series and that there at some point will be a new beginning.  I like to think though that the Dresden Files we are reading is the resultant equation after a great time war in the background. 

Another way to view it would be that there are many different parallel bubbles/realities that are 'mixing'/bouncing into each other.  And, we will soon get to find out the 'correct bubbles' that define the path of events we are reading.

Good point, and to follow on that. A great way to make sure Harry(himself) and anyone else knows what the right bubbles are or were would be to write down what actually happened, which could be what we've been reading the entire time. A Harry that is trying to get it all down for posterity. So possibly we've been reading the aftermath of the BAT from Harry's pov, who could be lost in the flow of time somewhen, and whose only connection is Ivy who is making sure that communication is being transcribed.

I guess not.  Ooh, you are really REALLY good at this.  (I've seen the Edit following the quote.)
Now go read The Chronicles of Amber :)

Dang, that just made my day. Thank you.
From who knows when I've loved complicated plotlines. and then when I started in on Dresden Files and his youtube interviews, I saw that he had a complicated plotline. With a BAT plotted since his 20s, he knows how its gonna end. With that assumed, I try to work backward. Same as what I'm doing with the Marvel MCU. Harry has to be at a certain level before each books starts. Therefore each book has to bring him to that level for the next one. I would love to see end of Storm Front Harry think about what to do about the problems at the beginning of Skin Game. But my thoughts are simply this: What level is Harry after the BAT? Because that is probably who's writing. The details he gives about things are so clear because he is seeing these 'bubbles' right then, even though time usually fades these details for everyone.
