CHIMERA open thread!

To celebrate the release of Chimera, 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.

The depiction of the quarantine camp was heartbreakingly realistic. Poor Carrie.

Juniper was adorable! They'll have to work very hard to cast her perfectly when the books are turned into movies. :) I admit to being surprised that Sal was essentially turned into a mom, but it worked.

I confess I was hoping that the original Joyce would make it through and join up with our heroes, but was glad to see that, at least, she had accepted Sal for who she was before fading into the ether.

I was SO hoping that Sherman would meet a grisly end. Glad my hopes were not disappointed! REALLY didn't like that guy. Especially glad we didn't have to go through a period where he used his pheromones to turn Sal into his slave, or something along those lines, ick.

Any hope for a sequel? :)

Sherman got the end that he deserved, but I was also hoping that Dr. Banks would get a similarly bloody death. Every time that manipulative bastard opens his mouth I just want one of the characters to rip out his tongue. But I suppose it is in character for him to weasel his way out of things in the end, *sigh*.
