Did Michael lie?

Very possible.
Personally, I believe that the circle had nothing to do with how restricted Lasciel was from interacting with Harry--I think what caused that was Harry's choice to attempt to lock her away, and it would have had the same result no matter what method of containment he chose to use.
groinkick:
I've been rereading Grave Peril. I will say this. Michael could have been mistaken but he is totally against lying. He gets after Harry for it repeatedly. Michael wouldn't do it on purpose.
Bad Alias:
That's my position.

No, Michael didn't fully trust Harry though Small Favor until he was positive the shadow was gone, mainly because no one before Harry had ever rid themselves of the shadow without taking up the coin and rejecting it.. He also says he never lied to him, his fear was that Harry was lying to him. Michael may have been mistaken or not about if Harry gave up his magic the shadow would leave, but he did not deliberately lie to him about that.

So why did Michael believe that Harry giving up magic would get rid of the shadow, what changed his mind, and why didn't he tell Harry? (And please don't say "because God said so"--I'm well aware of the possibility, it just annoys me so I'm disregarding it.)
