CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT open thread!

To celebrate the release of Chimes at Midnight, here. Have an open thread to discuss the book. Judging by the comments I'm seeing, some of you have had time, and I'd really, really rather book discussion (sometimes including spoilers) didn't crop up on other posts.

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 got shipped off on a business trip the day the book was released. I was so mad I ordered both paperback and kindle version so I could read it while I was away. I'm almost done. Some things I love:

- Tybalt is such an affectionate kitty - I adore their kisses and hugs and hope to see more in the future.

- The scene where Toby breaks down crying and Tybalt rushes to her nearly had me in tears. You know things had to be bad for her to reach such a state. Even if the use of pie was ridiculously hilarious.

- I figured the High King and Queen were Quentin's parents and would love to see them outside of their royal function. And Quentin being so mature about the responsibilities of kingship. Tybalt too - having read Rat-Catcher.

- I'm really excited about learning more about the first born and who the black-haired man is that the sea witch was involved with. And pretty much everything else pertaining to fairy.

- I love how Toby can kick ass and get ugly with people. Sometimes when she's surrounded by nobles, I forget she kinda grew up in the streets. As sweet as Connor was, I think Tybalt is in a better position to understand that side of her. He does need to stop dying though. Lol!

- I love all the new characters introduced so far and I can't wait to see where you'll take the story. :D





I'm so glad you're enjoying it!
