AMA Questions that might actually be answered (Gathering topic)
Dina:
5 (if you count books, but the short stories are not for free). I personally think that the price is fair for a JB book, but the quality of the book itself is not as good as always, apparently because many things the beta spotted where not changed in the final version (source: Priscellie in reddit)

And some of the short stories were more like sending us some crumbs, not satisfying at all. The question might be why weren't those things changed if it would have made the book better?
Dina:
I just meant that he received money for them. And in the post I've read from Priscellie, she said that she did not know what happened about the changes. I don't know if she said something else after that.
morriswalters:
It was not a comment about quality Dina. I will say that I think that a new reader coming on to this is going to feel shorted. Peace Talks doesn't resolve anything. There is no denouement. To this point all the books had a resolution to the central conceit. Even a book as convoluted as Proven Guilty.

You misunderstand, I'm wondering why Cowl and Peabody seem to get to pick whether they go on the standard way or if they go to mildewland while Harry gets stuck with just wherever the place he's in normally connects to.
--- Quote from: Con on August 19, 2020, 06:34:25 AM --- 2. Answered in a previously. Harry would have gone into the woods, killed a bunch of forest animals for life force, caused a natural disaster to get the power up. Can't find the quote though this is related
--- Quote from: jimbutcher --- How exactly would the version of Changes where Harry does the Darkhallow have gone afterwards? It seems like the kind of thing that would burn his bridges with absolutely everybody.
Answer: Well, with the White Council for sure, and with a lot of human authorities. But if he'd become a friggin' necromancer, he would have found his allies among the dead and dead-adjacent, and things would have generally been a lot gothier. :)

Well if I can get a second copy of that first bit it'd be good since that explains how he'd keep reader sympathy with the darkhallow version. Doesn't quite solve the second part where I was wondering who exactly would be showing up to drag Harry into cases when he's a bit too lazy to deal with anything that doesn't come to him so I think I'll still ask. And of course I know about that quote, I'm the one he was responding to. :P
