DF Spoilers / Re: New Dresden Series
« on: May 26, 2025, 08:25:37 PM »
FWIW, Scalzi's "Old Man's War" has been in development for over a decade. Hollywood has a habit of putting books into development for any number of reasons, and never bringing a TV show to light.
I would enjoy seeing a series based on the Red Court War, particularly if it's done by one of the streaming services. I won't hold my breath waiting for it.

It's possible (I hope) that the comments about his last two books suffering from the "Author's too big to edit" problem convinced the publisher to take a hard look at the manuscript and tell him that multiple changes/cuts are needed. It's also possible that his publisher just has so much in the pipeline that next January is the first open slot they had.

Here is the link to US Amazon. It is a lower price than the Canadian edition

When Harry said/thought that he had no idea of how many warriors winter had ( See section of 
? - I can't think of which book - where mother winter takes him to the outer gates and he sees just how many warriors winter has). He thought he'd called up all of them, but he probably didn't get more than a few percent of the available warriors.

Do I remember reading that Jim had another case of COVID? If so, that could explain the delay. Long COVID is a bear to deal with (bear being spelled so it rhymes with witch). It's also possible that he's just gotten distracted again.
In any case I too wish he'd finish this book and move on to complete the series. I'm getting old and want to find out what happens in the BAT. If it takes him another 20 years to finish I don't think I'll be around for the ending.

On the general subject of Q & A, was there anything in the recent podcast of significance? I no longer drive long distances for business, and find that I don't have the patience to just sit and listen to folks talk.

Has anyone else seen this. Bought it earlier this week. It's a fixup of the 3 working for bigfoot stories and is does a fairly good job of covering them

« on: November 18, 2021, 04:09:45 PM »The plan in Changes, with Susan, tragic as it is, is very clever.I've labored under the belief that the plan wasn't Harry's but Martin's, and he arranged for Harry to be the booby trap in the Red King's plan.

DF Spoilers / Re: Two thoughts on the timing of Mab's wedding announcement.
« on: November 08, 2021, 03:18:39 PM »Here's some thoughts....
What if the low fertility rate amongst Whamps is on one side. The men. They only kick out a few hundred at a time (human normal is in the millions). So - Thomas is not likely to have many children. Harry, presumably, would produce more.
Lara as Winter Lady, replacing Molly? Mab could be playing the long game. What about the hypothetical daughter of Harry and Lara? Wizard genes, a strong line, and Whamp blood too? Possible hybrid vigor too - she could be very dangerous.
And, while I think this unlikely - sorry Thomas - what makes us 100% sure the baby is Thomas'? If the shadow of a Fallen Angel can make a spirit of intellect with harry... can Nemesis do anything with a woman? Parthenogenesis?
As the winter lady, Lara would be required to be celebate, whether she wanted to be or not (see Carlos' injuries). How could a whampire survive for the (potentially) hundreds of years between her taking the Winter Lady mantle and her replacing Mab?

DF Spoilers / New Short Story

I just preordered Heroic Hearts edited by Jim and Kerrie Hughes. It has a short story by Jim called "Little Things" which is about Toot-toot. It's currently scheduled to ship on May 3rd.

DF Spoilers / Time for an Update
« on: May 31, 2021, 06:50:05 PM »
It's been almost 11 months since Peace Talks was released, which means it's been over a year since Jim was actively working on a new book (battle ground was originally part of PT)
I for one would like to know how he's doing on the book after "The Aeronaught's Windlass" and if he's even started on sketching out the next DF book

I think Anastacia Luccio would be the logical candidate. When she was in Tombstone, she mentioned that Eb was head of the wardens at that time. She has the experience, even if her new body isn't ideal for magiking.
