With extra EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

(Because he certainly doesn't have extra "i". *rimshot*)

Yes. Extra "i" would mean a skull deformity.

Jim confirmed at last night's signing that Harry is "about one year younger" than Jim, which would put him at 37.  Coincides decently well with our timeline.

So we learned some historical stuff from Changes.  You want any of that yet, or should we wait for the new to wear off a bit more?

I need to clean our my ears... did Jim Butcher say that Margret was over a hundred years old when she had Harry?  Man, that's a long time before menopause.
Harry could never be real... no one is that fast with the snark.

He did say that, which surprised me.  In my head, she was in her 40s.  A young wizard.

Me four.  I pictured her dying in her mid-to-late thirties, around the same age Harry is now.

I'm sure you've already thought of it, but it's probably safe to put Aftermath right next to changes in the timeline ;)

Could you remind me of where this is stated?  It's not ringing any bells for me.

I just listened to WN again and I didn't find any part that mentioned anything like that. I am almost 100% sure its not stated in the book.

I think Harry speculates about her using her faith based power when making the armour.  And I think it's in PG, in the hallway before she cracks the door open.

Not sure if you wanted to get this specific, but:

Harry met Michael (or Charity at least) at least 5 years prior to events in Grave Peril based off his discussion with Charity at the police station, which should put their meeting at around the same time he came to Chicago.
