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!

I'm only about halfway through, so I'm not going to read the comments just yet because I don't want to be spoiled.

But I hit something last night that I just had to ask about before my poor addled brain loses the thought again:

On page 112 (yes, I went back and looked it up), there's someone named George R Stewart, a familiar name from my youth. George R Stewart wrote the classic post-apocalyptic novel Earth Abides, as well as several natural disaster novels and a book about the Donner Party. Coincidence, Seanan?

If it is, cool, if you used the name on purpose, even cooler.
Nope; quiet little nod. :)
Yet another reason to love you, as if I needed more. :)
