When can we begin to discuss Skin Game (in spoiler tags, of course)? I want to make a joke about a thing about a fourth of the way through. I don't want to be the first one, though. It would be awkward.

I just finished Peace Talks. I agree with the consensus that it feels like half of a book. Hopefully, with Battle Ground, the books will feel more whole and satisfying. A few thoughts. It's weird that, after all the fuss that was made about her birth last book, Bonea barely makes an appearance. Similarly, while it's clear that the in-depth description of how Butters' lightsaber works is foreshadowing for something, I'm unclear what to make of the fact that Marcone kept Harry's old basement lab recognizable, and why he kept Thomas there. And it seems so odd that Marcone would keep just a single guard on Thomas. His rescue was so easy, if it doesn't turn out that Marcone allowed Thomas to escape, that's lovely writing. But why? More than anything else in Battle Ground, I want a satisfactory answer on this.

I missed it yesterday, but the first two chapers of Battle Ground are up. https://www.tor.com/2020/09/01/read-the-first-two-chapters-from-battle-ground-jim-butchers-new-dresden-files-book/ It seems good so far. I did laugh at how Dresden won't soulgaze the woman he loves, but he keeps soulgazing monsters.
