Peace Talks Trailer.

[Con]

Damn that was better than I was expecting.

First Question

(click to show/hide)

Thomas killed someone important to the Accords who?

Second question

(click to show/hide)

Does Harry and Lara hook up?

Third Question

(click to show/hide)

Battle Grounds confirmed, 77 days after Peace Talks. Titan is Gaia or Hekate? Hekate did technically appear in Skin Game. Gaia is probably the Mothers combined

[Frielove]

My guesses:

1:

(click to show/hide)

Marcone mentions how Mab won't protect Harry, so maybe it's someone working for or in partnership with Marcone? Could it possibly be Gard?

2:

(click to show/hide)

To me it looks like Lara is getting her Psychic "come hither" on and using it on Harry. I wouldn't be surprised at all. Harry wouldn't cheat on Murphy like that.

3: I have no guesses about this.

Who coming? And who has radio active blood?

I don't know who's coming, but the radioactive blood is a reference to the Spider-man cartoon that was on TV a lot during the 70s.

Yeah, it looks like Harry's just deliriously singing the theme song, like he did with Underdog's theme when Shiro showed up to rescue him.

[Avernite]

Ok then, seems we're doing it this way

Scary titanesses: well Mnemosyne, Titan of Memory, would seem a good one. Trying to bring back the good old times.

And Phoebe is the grandmother of Hecate, who we know is tied up in EVERYTHING. Although that may mean she's been supplanted long enough she can't do much now.

Tethys was a river/water god, which would make a decent enough fit as leader of some large quantity of Fomor

The assasin must be Kincaid

[KurtinStGeorge]

My guess about:

(click to show/hide)

Radioactive blood or Harry singing that part of the Spider Man theme song.  Harry's in undertown, possibly in the same area where CP-1 (Chicago Pile 1); the world's first nuclear reactor was set up in 1942.  I've been reading that some components of that reactor were used to build the next nuclear reactor in another location, but some parts of it were simply buried.

(click to show/hide)

Murphy is getting out a Dremel saw.  Probably to remove her cast.  What does she think she can accomplish?  This also reminds me when Jim said he was writing Murphy's funeral.

   Like she always does, part of the cavalry to save Harry's ass,  however her judgement hasn't exactly been on point the last couple of books, that is why she is wearing the cast in the first place, well, love can do that to you..  I  remember that too, we all thought he was just messing with us... Then again it might be true.

Looks like Mister is taking up guard duty, protecting little Maggie.  Mouse is most likely going to have to be in the field with Harry.

So, uh, shouldn't Harry be protected against Lara since he is truly in love with Murphy? Or am I missing out on some technicality. The other alternatives are... not encouraging.

[Bad Alias]

Well, what happens next in that scene? How far have Harry and Murphy gone? Is Murphy truly in love with Dresden? It took Thomas and Justine a long time to get there.

[Wolfeyes]

(click to show/hide)

Considering how the series has emphasized True Love's protection being pretty rare and how Thomas/Justine's didn't kick in for a long while, I wouldn't be surprised if Harry/Murphy haven't hit that point yet. I guess it's possible too Lara does get her vamp on and then protection kicks in afterwards but it'd feel a bit fast when Harry/Murphy only just got together last book.

I'm still not banking on Murphy's death based on Jim's reasoning for injuring Michael instead of killing him, but recklessness definitely.

Yup, but lets not forget that the sex act can shatter that protection.  Maybe because Harry's true love will always be Susan, remember that protection lasted for a number of years.. How many true loves is one guy entitled to?  So he loves Murphy, but she isn't his true love..

Murphy was hospitalized and has had a cast on her leg after that.  They may not have consummated their relationship yet.

I'm not going to spoilerize (That's a new word I just made up.) this next part.  Some scenes in the trailer are from Battle Ground.

From the Q&A with Jim and Priscilla, if you look at the 35 second mark of the trailer; which shows many of the characters at the Peace Talks, Mr. Ferro is standing on the left with an unlit cigarette but smoke coming out of his nose, Warden Ramirez, Eb and Warden Chandler are standing on the right, Mab is standing center stage, Molly is sitting on the left, next to her in Ivana; a svartalf who was in a short story with Molly and Thomas, on the right sitting down is Marcone and next to him is Lara Raith.   

[Dina]

Well, I just saw the trailer. I will confess that I am not very impressed

(except for Mister!! I seriously hope Mister does not die).

Specific comment:

(click to show/hide)

Titans I remember: Gaia, Rhea, Phoebe, Thetys, Ptia?. As Avernite says Thetys is a good suspect for Fomor Queen or something. But Mnemosyne is interesting because it could explain some book inconsistencies as Harry's memory been affected.

About Lara and Harry: I've said several times that I don't think Harry is Truly (as in True Love) inlove with Murph. Perhaps once, but for now I don't think so.
