All right Shecky you finally got me convinced with that article, its good to see the actual numbers. Of course I'm not going to be changing my tune, I will be grumbling for cheap ebooks the same way people grumble for free beer.

In Grave Peril Harry gets a glimpse of Marva using the Sight. She doesn't appear like anything other than a dead corpse.
Harry also "lowered the Sight before it showed me something that I didn’t want to keep with me." when looking at Marva In Grave Peril, so that's not really that good a example to go by.

« on: March 07, 2011, 11:58:46 PM »One thing I noticed concerning Kincaid's heritage was Harry's view of him with the Sight. A giant demon with a dead body attached that looked like Kincaid's human form.
Is this indicative of Kincaid's sacrifice of what humanity he has? Probably not, because he still seems very much human and he does care of Murphy, Ivy, and (maybe) Harry, due to Ivy.
Maybe the demon in the Sight is his old employer Drakul, metaphorically holding Kincaid, much like viewing Harry with the Sight shows HWWB.
Maybe the Demon is metaphorical.
And Maybe it's his battle shape-shifting form, a la Dante from DmC. (Because he's quickly becoming an expy of Dante in my mind)
Actual its not a dead body that looks like Kincaid attached to the demon form it is:
Quote
For just a second I saw something standing there. Something enormous, malformed, something silent and merciless and deadly. It had to crouch to keep from brushing the ceiling with the horns curling away from its head, and batlike wings spread from its shoulders to fall around it and behind it, to drag along the floor, and I thought I saw some kind of hideous double image lurking behind it like the corpse-specter of Death himself.
And many of us believe that the corpse specter of death is really Mavra veiled and taking pictures that Harry just happened to see with his sight when he say Kincaid.

Terry Pratchett already uses that one, Jim will have to come up with his own.

Thanks for the info Buzzy people, its nice to know you treating this in such a professional manner. I was wondering if you could give us some more specifics of what you are looking for in stories. For instance I have a couple fantasy/humor/satire short stories would you be looking for stories like that?

here is a question that came up in another thread (I'm younking it directly from parthagenon)
Why does the ban on enthrallment still apply to nonhumans, while the Law prohibiting killing only applies to humans?
in other words can we get some more info about how the Law about Enthrallment come about and what it is there for?

hey this thread, which is the transcription of some of Jim's interviews, is loose in the spoiler section. Can we get it moved to a sticky in that section so it won't get locked or deleted? also it would be easier to find.

Yeah, I'm sure. I reread it before posting that she was. I always try to double check so I don't say something wrong and get embarrassed and have to eat someone alive to make myself feel better.
