Do you remember an old post where he mentioned that he was writing Murphy's funeral? Or am I crazy?

So, it's not in the book but in a WoJ, if you don´t want to know, stop reading!!




JB was said in a recent Q&A that you can release only some aspects of a Demonreach prisoner (for instance, if you had trapped Vadderung you could release only his Odin aspect and keep Kringle sort of a host). Then, he was asked if Harry could leave the Winter mantle trapped and he said theoretically yes, but it would be complicated, like doing a brain surgery. But I am wondering what else could be done. That is what I thought:

1) If Molly willingly allows herself to be trapped, perhaps she can be released while the Lady Mantle remains. Problem, that would weak Winter and I don't think the WK mantle would allow it, but, what if Harry wears iron while doing the binding? Then, the WL mantle would be bound to Harry and perhaps he could blackmail Mab (not wise but possible) into releasing him of the WK mantle and leaving he and Molly alone, as a price for the Lady mantle to be released.

2) Thomas? Trap the hunger? (in his current state, probably won't survive, but in another occasion)

3) Separating a Fallen from his host? (I don't see Marcone surrendering to Harry's will but who know, perhaps they can make a deal)

4) The one I see more probable: A nemfected from the infection.

Ok, I simply cannot understand the WC voting Harry out. I mean, when Ramirez told him about the voting, if I were in Harry's shoes I would have told them "that is bad. Because Mab always respects previous engagements. She won't ask me to betray the Council or to break the laws of magic, I am, after all, a Warden of the WC. But if I were not, I could be much more dangerous".
And after the battle...giving all that power to Mab without the restraining of a membership to the Council...is just dangerous. I don't get it.

As always, there are many but my favorite is

(home) "It's where the books are"

I just read this chapter today, so sorry if everyone already discussed this, but I am confused about what Thomas said. Particularly:
infertility? Problems for the babies? I don't get it. From BT and all the Inari story I got the idea that White reproduced normally and does not begin to feed until coming of age. Why the baby will be feeding from Justine? Why would there be infertility problems? Lord Raith has a lot of children, for instance.

I have not seen it, but the new show the InBetween is about a woman who has visions and talks with ghosts, sort of "medium" or "ghost whisperer". The woman just happen to have a father who is a Police Detective, and it is played for Paul Blackthorne.

I have to admit I am sad to know Jim is working in a Maggie/Mouse POV story. Those who know me are aware that is the least character I would have chosen.

The chapter where Grimm meets the aetherealists. I've been rereading and I thought a few things
Folly says "He's not mad. Except that he is. And I should know" Could she be referring to the name that Bayard uses for Grimm, "Mad" (for Madison).

Do you really have peppermint candy red and white? Ours are green or green and white, which makes me think again how surprising is that even minor cultural details remain from our world to the Spire World.

Finally, Ferus mentions Grimm knows "one of" Folly's names. Do you think we will know more of her names?
