"How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea" open thread.

I have been asked to create an open thread for discussion of "How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea." As it has been out for a week now (gasp! so soon!), this seems reasonable to me. So here you go: here is an open thread.

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.) I will be DELETING all comments containing spoilers which have been left on other posts. No one gets to spoil people here without a label.

You can also start a 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, and try not to bleed on the carpet.

I had been waiting eagerly for this ever since you announced it - and it was more wonderful than I could have imagined. The ecology was perfectly thought-out, seeing Mahir again - oh, Mahir, how I missed your wit and perspective on things! Also, seeing a poly triad in fiction meant so much to me - hearkening back to your earlier piece on representation, it is so rare to see poly relationships written in fiction as something that's good for all the participants and as a valid thing. So thank you for doing that. (and my girlfriend keeps quoting that line about mediation, much to my amusement and that of our boyfriend).

Also, re: the zombie wombats being a serious threat - I would bet money that somewhere, Ursula Vernon has read this and is laughing her ass off, with the occasional "I told you so!".
