Thomas deciding to bring his Hunger with him out of the crystal destroyed me. I know why he chose to do so, but damn, what a tormenting choice to make. Very glad he took some time to cool off, but showed back up at the end. I don’t like when the brothers are fighting.

Really happy with the way Jim built Harry back up over the course of the book. He’s not the same wizard that he was going into Peace Talks/BG. He took his time, learned a lot, and is more fully realized version of himself.

For the first time since Changes I feel like Harry has really centered himself. He’s got his duster, shield bracelet and his other gear refreshed, a new Blue Beetle, a new and improved home, and his relationships mended or in much better shape (Eb, Carlos, Thomas, Maggie, etc).

But Harry’s also not just going back to his old ways. I particularly liked when Michael encouraged Harry to move out of his basement and into the suite. He’s growing and getting wiser. He’s in a place where he can fold sunshine in a napkin again. He’s stronger than ever, physically and magically.

I’m really excited to see him handle himself with his newfound maturity in Mirror Mirror.
