Any news on Peace Talks
Kindler:
I miss the potions, too, though I understand why Jim has shied away from them a bit. He added a nod to them in Changes, which made sense; he was adding everything (and everyone but Will and the Alphas; though it would've made the jungle run more fun (and maybe a brief altercation between Will and Mouse for Pack Leader status? I dunno), there really wasn't much room for them anyway) back into it anyway. Harry's pretty much at the point where most potions would be redundant for him now—though that can't be totally true, considering the Merlin wears a tac belt chock full of them when he gets ready for a fight.
Bob the Skull always reminded me of an old D&D character my friend used to play, Bob the Wizard (that was his full name; his middle name, he insisted, was "the"). Dude used to just use Tenser's Transformation and beat the snot out of things with a dagger, or Enlarge himself and hit stuff with his bare hands. Played him like a totally lecherous psychopath. And, naturally, he was the one who always survived party wipes.

Yes, but Bob + Butters & Andi has the potential for something truly, dare I say, magical.
On a more serious note, I'm curious about what happens when a spirit of intellect starts spending a lot of time with the faith side of things. Bob said he's not equipped to deal with it, but with Butters by his side... I suspect Jim is setting us up for something big.

I'm kind of expecting some sort of sibling-rivalry thing between Maggie & Bonnie.
Maggie is a bit too mature, too much a "little adult" in portrayal. I don't think Jim has had a chance to really get to know little kids in depth. I think she's too grown-up to START the problem, but not above responding if provoked.
But Bonea? Yeah, I can see problems from her.
g33k:
I'm seeing the Fomor take a big hit, this book or maybe next.
Mollie has kind of a hate-on for them. Ditto Harry (recently & unexpectedly back from the presumed-dead). One of the most-subtle wizards, and likely the strongest wizard, of the new "not Old Guard" generation of wizards.
Now Winter Lady and Winter Knight.
I do not see the Fomor flourishing in this situation.

<heh>
But nah.
Bob's not a perv. HARRY's Bob is a perv.
Evil Bob? Not a perv. Scary as fuck, but not a perv.
Butters' Bob? Ummm. I don't think we know enough to be sure... but I don't think we see any signs of perviness... which just is NOT pervy Bob, especially with Andi around!

A very interesting thought. Very interesting indeed!
Bob says he's "not equipped" -- I presume that means no soul, no moral sense, etc. But Bob is self-admittedly ignorant in this realm, and... well... "with God, all things are possible."
So I think you may be onto something.
