Wouldn't be the first time would it?   Finally the book arrived around one this afternoon..  I began
reading, why is it when you want peace and to be left alone, it doesn't happen?

Anyway, I haven't gotten too far, but a thought occurred to me as Harry gazed at his mangled brother.
What if his assumptions were wrong?  What if

Thomas wasn't saying "Justine" at all?  What if "Junghg.S'Jnngh."  was the person or creature that put him up to committing this crime?  And on Demonreach as he was being put under in the cell,  "J. . .J. . ."  it wasn't Justine at all on his lips, he was still attempting to tell Harry who really was behind all of this?

After I've finished this book, need to go back and check out names that are even remotely close, who do they belong to?  It could be very important in how this all comes out.

I'm speculating that it's Genoskwa. The Genoskwa seems similar to the Skywalker in terms of peer and maliciousness; it could have similarly tortured Thomas using the Hunger.

I also hope (although I doubt I'll see all of it) to see:

* Uncle Thomas of the Unlimited Money Cards spoiling one or more of his nieces.
* a new career path for Karrin Murphy
* another Carpenter kid (maybe Hope?) develop power
* rebuilt or rebuilding White Council and Wardens; 3-4 U.S wardens aren't enough.
* Ivy/Kincaid reunion
* an actual challenge to Lara's power
