HALF-OFF RAGNAROK open thread!

To celebrate the release of Half-Off Ragnarok, here. Have an open thread to discuss the book. Judging by the comments I'm seeing, some of you've have had time, while others received review copies.

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 a hard time deciding who I loved more - Martin, Shelby, or Crow. LOVED the book, and just wanted to hug Alex every time he went starry eyed over Shelby. I love how human and relatable Alex is, and that even though he's a dude, I can still really identify with him (RARE in most male protagonists!). I also wanted to hug him every time I sensed a deep and abiding Jurassic Park obsession. Has Alex gotten to see the plesiosaurs that Fran and Jonathan visited?

I also wanted to say that I really appreciate the way you write sexytimes. Verity didn't go on and on and on about her own body, and neither did Alex - they focused on their partners. I know it's a weird thing to compliment, but so often sex scenes are where I want to chunk the book across the room in "nobody THINKS that way except Patrick Bateman" frustration. :P

That's the best thing to compliment. Thank you so much.
