Harry Dresden's New Apprentice!!?!
pcpoet:
my second guess is the kid from zoo day....my reasoning is that the boy met harry when he was having a day with his daughter Maggie. his daughter will be the reason harry takes an interest in teaching this kid
Nooneofconsequence:
Zoo Day, and Day One, took place after Skin Game and before Peace Talks.
Did Austin break any of the laws? I don't think so, but he was not in control of his powers. Harry wouldn't have had to deliver him to the council (at the time he was still a Warden), and training the kid so he doesn't break any laws would be very in character. And Maggie made a pointed argument: “That could be me.”
No mention of him at all in Peace Talks or Battle Ground, but Harry was a bit preoccupied. Austin makes sense as a possibility.
Mira:
The thing is, why go though all the trouble of putting Lasciel's shadow in Harry's head, have her fall in love with Harry. Then as Lash have sex with Harry's Id, produce a "child" or parasite in Harry's head giving him all kinds of mysterious headaches, until we find out the existence of this parasite, then he finally gives birth to it before it kills him, and it lives in a crudely carved wooden skull Harry meant to be Bob's new home, now since Bob is back with Harry, sort of redundant. We are told that Bonnie has all of Lasciel's knowlege, and Harry's as well, and keep her around as Maggie's little sister who knows all the pancake recipes ever thought of but gets the ingredients mixed up? We are talking the creation of a character over several books, all of that and Bonnie will remain a toddler/super genius spirit hanging around in the background to be a sometimes foil for little Maggie? Really?
I really doubt that, and since Bob is back, he or Bonnie has to go, or Jim has to do something with the character. Since Bonnie's main problem is she isn't trained, she will be Harry's new apprentice.

Yeah, about that...
???
::)
Awfully convenient to have a custom-built spirit-housing all ready to go that way.
Almost... too convenient?

Yeah, about that, too...
Absolutely not all of Lasciel's -- not a literal Fallen Angel -- maybe all of the Shadow's knowlege.
But I don't recall ever seeing a definitive "...all of..." statement: a lot of the knowledge, sure.
But if Jim took (for example) biology/DNA as the model, Bonnie will have a largely-randomized half-from-Lash and half-from-Harry (Lash probably was able to organize which "half").
But I'm pretty sure Bonea won't suddenly become (for example) Harry's Guide to the Starborn Phenomenon; I do expect she'll have some highly-pertninent Starborn-relevant info, though!
