SYMBIONT open thread!

To celebrate the release of Symbiont, here. Have an open thread to discuss the book. Because nothing says "Thanksgiving" like "tapeworms." 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 can see why there needs to be a third book

So...

Tansy might be alive or might not.

Anna might gain some of Tansy's identity, going by Ronnie's experience.

Sally might come back and retake control of her body. (Although I suspect this might be a red herring)

Sherman might turn a whole community of tapeworm free people into Chimera. (And since they'd all be clones of Sal, would she be able to take control of them?)

"Fishy dispatched the lock with a single swipe of the crowbar he'd acquired from somewhere." That made me laugh out loud! I was (am) rubbish at Half Life, but smashing things with a crowbar was so theraputic. :)
