Odd Thomas did just this; the final book was published from his afterlife.
I'm spoiling this. It's about a Dean Koontz series.Personally, my money is on Dresden becoming something Grander at the end of the BAT rather than dying.
"Grander" seems like too much of a "Happily Ever After". More likely he's stuck sitting around all day haunting Mort
He hasnt even been alive during all the Books themselves; there's absolutely zero requirement for him to be alive to write these books. Dead and Gone are wildly different things in the DV, especially with Harry.
That's why I said 'past tense' he is writing about events that happened in the past, as a memoir. He is not writing in the present tense, as the events are happening, there fore, he wrote about being a ghost after he came back to life.
As for the BAT being in the present, that'd be swell, but I hope to God he isn't going to write it in present tense. Present tense fiction is extremely irritating to read. Too many f*(&ing gerunds. Simple past FTW.
Nope, not at all. My whole point was that in the Dresden Files you do not have to be deadALIVE to be able to write a book, or event to be able to write a book and share it with Mortals. So yes, Harry can still very much be dead at the end of the series and still be writing theses books after the fact. EDIT: Alive, I meant Alive..
Only if he's doing it through Mort or someone else like him.
To be out of the game? May be a good thing for Harry.
