--- Quote from: Conspiracy Theorist on August 20, 2020, 09:55:33 PM ---Perhaps Harry in book is deliberately dropping misinformation, not unlike the verbal games with Grey in SG, otherwise we have to assume that Jim is being lazy and petulant, not checking his wiki or accepting his beta readers points when they do. I don’t want to believe that.
The three biggies are:-
1. Forgetting Harry had physically been in the BFS before
2. Tunguska and the death of a Dragon
3. The fire in Notre Dame

It's his book not the beta readers. The timeline as published isn't fixed. Notre Dame could be a case of trying to slip the time stream of the books lest his pop culture references get stale. His multiyear vacation didn't help him either since his characters are aging.
Generally though, quality is off. The audiobook is atrocious. It's like he hit a deadline and had to shove it out the door ready or not.

Like I said, burnout. It can happen to any of us, but sorry, especially the short stories more like going through the motions.
Con:
about.

I mean you could ponder how any supernatural creature began if you're wondering how Vampires came about how did any other creature?
I think it's clear the Lords of Outer Night were just regular Red Court Vampires who fed on Gods.

--- Quote from: Dina on August 20, 2020, 07:52:35 PM ---I understand your quote was an invention but it was suppose be a "commentary" about what Priscellie actually said, so I provided one actual quote to compare. She does not mention anyone. I have the feeling she is not shading Jim but Penguin, but the quote is open to interpretation...which was actually my point. Don't assume she is criticizing Jim.
I found another quote were she says "Oy, leave the betas out of the criticism of the rampant continuity errors. We pointed all that nonsense out. XD"
