ONCE BROKEN FAITH open thread!

To celebrate the release of Once Broken Faith, 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 share your feeling that the change that Toby will most likely have to make to the Selkies will in effect, "resurrect" the skin, thus overwriting to mortal who is wearing it at the time.

As of right now, Toby seems willing to go along with whatever the Luidaeg has planned (she always calls her before she has to go out of town because she knows that the deadline is past due). I'm not sure how she'll react if she is essentially trading one life for another.

And the Luidaeg was indebted to Toby in The Winter Long after Toby brought her back from the dead, which is in part what confused me about the flame that Toby had to incur a debt for. But Toby still thanked the Luidaeg after awakening Tybalt, Quentin, and Walter, and the Luidaeg said that she would have to so...I don't know.

I've lost track of all of their indebtedness, but I think the bottom line is that those two like/love each other enough to save each other's bacon/do what the other wants anyway.
