BLACKOUT open thread!

To celebrate the release of Blackout, 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. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.)

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, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.

Have fun!

Meant to mention my favorite line, which for some reason just about knocked me over giggling:

"Jeez. Is that a spleen?"

(....I might have a warped sense of humor.)
Hey, how often do you get to see a spleen?
I've seen mine, but it was on an ultrasound.
Then again, I'm trusting the word of a tech that that particular grey blob amongst all the other grey blobs was actually a spleen.
It is a rare and notable occurrence! And it lets you say the word "spleen" a lot. Which is fun. (The trouble, really, is knowing when to stop. Spleeeeeeeeeeeeeeen.)
Why is it always a spleen? I don't think I'd recognize a spleen. Kidneys. I'd recognize a kidney on the ground. I don't know spleens.
