Any news on Peace Talks
Maz:
I'd wager a guess that if this book were exceptionally longer than the norm, Jim or Priscilla would have clued us in already as his transparency is rather high.

I know what you mean. I finished Skin Game the day it came out. I cleared my schedule specifically because I knew I was going to be reading all day. It was a bittersweet experience, because it's such a fun book, but then I gazed into the Jim Butcherless future, and wept.
On the flip side, I'll have at least a twelve-hour audiobook too, which should last about two weeks' worth of drive time.

I was the same way -- except I had to immediately reread it in light of the twist.
Kindler:
I did the same, except I finished Skin Game, then went back to the beginning and reread the series and short stories in order, mostly because I didn't want it to be over (and it was time for my annual reread anyway).
This year, I listened to the audiobooks for the first time instead, and recently finished them (I now understand everyone's praise for James Marsters's performance). An old friend convinced me to really read some manga for the first time a couple of months ago, and I decided to start with Berserk, so I didn't really have time (if you don't know, there are about 8,400 published comic pages over the last thirtyish years, so it was a lot to get through) to read the books even though I was due. Evidently, all of the manga I'm even remotely interested in is almost hilariously lengthy (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, which I haven't looked at for twentysomething years, is somewhere around 24,000 pages; that may not sound like much, but holy crap is there a lot of detail in each panel), so I'm hoping I get to a good stopping point during whatever I'm reading to do a legit reread in the leadup to Peace Talks.

"Why’s Peace Talks Taking So Long?
Personal problems/life events spanning the past several years gummed up the works for a while. Fortunately, things are back on an even keel! For the last several months, he’s been cranking out chapters with blazing speed, under the guidance of his new canine buddy Bru and his wife Kitty’s four majestic cats.
As of March 28nd, 2019, the current draft of the novel is up to chapter 52. Progress! We don’t have a release date yet, but we’ll update this page, send out a newsletter, and tweet it to the high heavens the moment we do!"
