I Can Fix That: A Million Uses for Duct Tape by Mike the Mechanic

I don’t think it was Kincaid that shot Harry.  Kincaid was asked by Harry to “make sure” and he agreed to do that.  Kincaid being who he is knows that a body shot might not be good enough.  He told Harry in an earlier book how he would kill him if he was going to.  I believe a head shot from quite a distance was mentioned.  So either it wasn’t Kincaid or Kincaid for reason’s yet unknown purposely botched the job.

Or other forces *cough Uriel*, saw fit to tweak things to make sure the shot wasn't dramatically fatal, like blowing Harry's head off, so he could get his second chance.  I mean, Harry was on a boat, and even in relatively calm water those things can sway and rock a good bit.  Kincaid is an excellent shot, but he's also practical.  For a shot like that, given the circumstances, he would likely do what any good marksman would do, aim for the center mass, and take out the heart.  I mean the shot WAS a fatal one, the only reason Harry didn't die from it was that he just happened to fall *coughs Uriel* into the cold water, where his Queen Mab could snatch him up and spirit him away to restore him. 

Eh, if he's of an age to have a relationship with Molls, then so's Dresden.  If Fitz is the same age as Molly was in Proven Guilty, then she's currently 7-8 years older than him.

Don't really see anything there, but *ahem* (points at his sig), I'm not the most unbiased person out there... 

Maybe the "love" angle is the wrong way to look at it.  Perhaps seeing someone in her earlier state will help her see the error of her ways (or whatever) and straigten up.  Like what happened with Harry, teaching someone younger did a lot for him magically, and personally.  Perhaps Fitz will play the same roll for Molly to some degree, bring her back to a connection with others by looking out for him. 

Personally I don't think Fitz is going to stick around as far as characters go   I think he was a 1story support character.   But if he did stick around it would be neat, I mean he has a LOT of Harry's humor and wit, and sense of Right.  I could see Molly responding to that on a base level, and wanting to have him around.

Will Harry get back Bob so he can stop being super dork Bob?

I don't think so. I think Butters will keep Bob for at least several books.  I mean just look what he did with Bob's help in only a few days of consultation and cobbling together of stuff.  Before Ghost Story, Butters didn't have a lot to bring to the table in support of Dresden and the others.  He had medical training to patch up holes, and investigative knowledge regarding causes of death.   That was it really.  Well, that and a pair titanium cajones when he needed to. (SUE!!)  But really, the Hole Patching job is usually an after-the-fight kind of thing, and the medical knowledge was usually an Act 1 reveal kind of thing.  After that though, Butters would usually fade back into the background. 

With Bob though, he is participating directly.  He is taking his brain (considerable) and applying it to this new area of reality, and coming up with spectacular things in no time.  He has become the Magical Q to Harry's James Bond.   

And really Harry didn't use Bob much in the later books.  He was too busy rushing off because hey, that's what Harry does.  If given the choice between sitting back and consulting his research when something dangerous is brewing, or charging in Staff Akimbo, Harry usually picked the Charge In approach.   

Butters knows that's not his strong point. Oh sure he will go into danger if he has to, but he is far more useful as support and research.  And now....with Bob, he has a huge reservoir of arcane lore and understanding to draw upon and apply to the fight. 

So yeah, I think Butters will keep Bob for a while.  Or at least I hope he does.  I eagerly await the scene where Harry walks into Butters' place and sees all kinds of weird stuff laying around, and Butters gleefully showing off what neat magic thing they can do. 

I mean really, given Butters Straight Man sense of humor, and Harry's Snark, the comedy value alone is golden.   

Harry died and his spirit left his body. Apparently his spirit was kept on hold for 6 months, then someone decided to give his spirit a chance to go back as a ghost. After that, Uriel gave Harry a choice to return, or to go on to what is next. Harry chose to return, so Uriel sent his spirit back to his body.

That's not correct.  Harry's options when standing before the doors were to go back to Jack Murphy's Precinct (and take a job there), or the door of darkness that was What Comes Next.  Harry chose What Comes Next.   It just so happened that What Came Next for Harry was   More Life.   As they said, Death is a very gray spectrum of states.  He was technically dead in that his spirit was out of his body, but his body was sustained.  This says, (To me anyway), that he was only Mostly Dead.  That he still had the thread of connection to his body through his soul, and could thus come back, thanks to Mab and Demonreach's efforts.  That for all practical purposes he WAS a ghost, but they said several times that he wasn't a normal ghost.  My opinion is that due to the Fallen One cheating, this opened up several options for Uriel to employ, that are normally off limits.  Such as Harry getting a 2nd chance at life.  This makes sense, since the outcome of the Fallen cheating was Harry's death...in order to balance everything...Uriel would be given an option, with the final outcome of Harry being alive again.    7 words for 7 words,  a Life for a Death.   The Balance is maintained.
