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'm especially worried about how he punches Dave, and then apologizes and swears that this is the last time.

However, consider Dr. Joe, who sort of blows that off the map as far as "worst boss".

There is that.

But I did wonder, "do we need to do an intervention on Shaun? Is Dave in an abusive bosslationship?"

My answers to those questions were, respectively: Yes, Yes, and Mahir is probably too civilly-raised to actually smack him.

Yeah, probably.

I think Dave willfully allowed himself to be a punching bag in the hopes that it'd keep Shaun from bigger explosions and abusing others beside himself, and that eventually it'd get Shaun to see he needed therapy. Serious, serious therapy.

We might've found that out if Dave hadn't died in Oakland. Poor dave.
