DEADLINE open thread. Have a party.

To celebrate the release of Deadline [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy], here. Have an open thread to discuss the book.

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.

Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned.

You can also start a book discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence. I will probably answer a great many comments. I may not answer all of them.

Have fun!

I do wonder about Shaun's George-voice seemingly knowing things he doesn't

Sounds like a fairly simple way for a not-quite-sane brain to deal with things it digs out of the subconscious rather than the conscious.

And for a long time, Shaun didn't have to process a lot of info - George read a lot of those signals for him. So when he's very stressed and miserable, not quite sane, without her, and now needing to process some of that info himself - co-opting her voice to do it seems a natural reaction to me.

It actually sounds like a sensible way to go crazy.

It totally does, and it's one of my favorite things about the book. I'm just not prepared to assume that's all it is, if you see what I mean.
