I agree that merely taking up a coin wouldn't change Johnnie enough to allow another soul daze with Harry.  Now maybe giving up the coin and deciding to live for the sole benefit of others would be a more fundamental change,  but so far Marcone is still serving Marcone.

Also, in a recent video, his wife needs him to finish it before the new year I believe,  over a comment or discussion with a redditor?

Hi Mira, I'm not so sure about when Harry is recording his experiences, is there anything to say that he writes them down on a regular basis?  I always figured that a significant amount of time had occurred between the experiences and when Harry writes his memoirs.

For instance,  he finishes the first book with the phrase

   My name is Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden. Conjure by it at your own risk. 

At that point, he really wasn't a threat to those who could summon him by his name, not like he is now or as he will continue to grow in strength.   
I always took that as an indication that he wrote these long after the event took place and that was why he'd be considered a unreliable narrator.

According to the tidbit, it's only 2-3 weeks post battle,  that's about 5 months ahead of Christmas Eve.

Does anyone want to discuss what possible issues I saw with it?


I don't think these would have made it past the beta readers

Good morning, 
Someone in reddit posted a link to chapter 1 of Twelve Months,  but I'm not positive that it's legit.  There are a couple of things that bring up questions if it is.
Let me know if you want to discuss the questions I have on this

There was a comic.con in New York over the weekend.  Jim was there. Signing and had a panel,  was hoping to hear if anything new came out...
