Who is Thomas talking to?
morriswalters:
By any measure outside of fiction time travel is impossible because it violates causality. Which means that cause and effect gets broken. The only way to get around it is to cheat or just flat out ignore it. Butcher is trying to cheat in my opinion.
He creates a character that has been around since the White God said let there be light. Then he puts restrictions on what those characters can do. He then creates a new character that is no longer bound by those restrictions. That's the cheat. It may not be his intent but it's what he wrote.

Only if the prisoner is Harry, which I doubt.

Such is your privilege.
TrueMonk:
On whether it was a good idea to let Harry communicate with the British prisoner. I guess 7t was a chance. If Harry can get Thomas out quickly it probably won't matter much. If Harry had died an Thomas was stuck there for 50+ years, maybe talking with a possible villain a couple of times a year is better than nothing.

Not knowing who or what he is I wouldn't have any idea.
