In the recent Barnes and Noble q&a but for some baffling reason they nuked it from their Facebook within the week.

EDIT: It was the Barnes and Noble q&a

* The Fallen can be infected but between their generally slippery nature and the lack of free will to act they make really bad targets who can't do much. He compared it to sticking your hand inside a plastic bag.
* Marcone has absolutely rocketed past Harry in skill, Harry might be able to pull off the teleporting stunt Marone did in a few centuries.
* Saints were made with faith, the church doesn't really do it anymore because they decided it was creepy. This is the nice version of the darkhallow mentioned in Welcome to the Jungle.
* Thomas probably can't wield Amoriacchus, maybe one of the other ones.
* The first of several short stories should be coming up in a few weeks.
* Multiple dimensions metaphysics obviously coming up in Mirror Mirror. Jim is not sure if all of his series are in the same universe or not.
* Soulfire can be used with necromancy, it has dire results. The results of one such case are commonly running around in the dresden files.
* There's been about half a dozen wizards in total who've gotten soulfire. Regular humans don't get it.
* For Mouse there's plans for a three part novella (first being presumably Zoo Day) planned. The second part will be Mouse and Cerberus going off on an adventure together.

Marcone hasn't, but Namshiel is a Fallen Angel, so yeah...

Now that is interesting because the general consensus has been he'd be able to wield the Sword of Love because of his true love for Justine.  So that gets thrown out the window now?  I guess I could see him wielding the Sword of Hope, because as we learned from the soul gaze with Harry many years ago, part of Thomas continues to fight the Hunger even though it seems to be a losing battle.

Now that sounds confusing...

I'm not happy with that, yeah I know, not my call, but...  So since at least one of the wizards who got soulfire, also used it with necromancy, does that say that archangels are really bad a judging the people they are giving the soulfire to?  Or because of free will they don't think it is their problem?

Oh please don't!! I will absolutely be done with this series at that point.

I don't know if I will go that far, but the series is already moving past the reason why I loved it in the first place.  What began as unique has swiftly moved to standard fantasy, that is one reason why I cannot get excited about Mirror Mirror.

The_Sibelis:
Marcone suddenly having mad skills in magic is just about the stupidest thing ever... We constantly were reminded the easy path would let give you power at a terrible price and suddenly Marcone skips all that and just be ones a magical demigod with no drawbacks? That breaks the DF on a very moral level... I hate it, I absolutely despise it even. Getting a coin doesn't have to mean you become a practitioner. Marcone should have become a big hulking monster not some finesse filled warlock.
