WOJ it's not a typo.

Can you point me to where that WoJ is? I'd like to hear it/read it for myself (it's not that I don't trust you guys, it's just that people can make mistakes. I know I have  :P).
Please, call me Count :).

Thanks go to Shecky for the nickname and Serack for the avatar ^,..,^

The Black Court reference seems so out of place in the statement that Lash is making right before she dies fighting off the mind whammy from Vittorio.  Everyone wonders if it was a typo. 

There is a WoJ floating around though where someone specifically asked him about it and he said that it was about the vampires, not the Black Council - no typo.

Ill have to dig.. its not something I ran into myself, there was a thread by another poster a while back that went into all the various myths about the leanasidhe.  ;D

Ah. Well all I've been able to find is the idea of her being a muse in exchange for their love. Though according to WB Yeats if a mortal refused her love she had to be their slave. If not they became hers and either died or found someone to take their place.

"A gorilla did it."

The sheer idiocy of a statement like that is enough to rupture a blood vessel in a reasonable person's brain.

No one has invoked Serack yet???

Serack--could you help us find a WoJ re: in WN, it was not a typo that Lash says the Black Court when she tells Harry that she will tell him about his mother's involvment with them instead of saying the Black Council.

Jim " No. (evil smiley)"
Yeah, but Germans and Hungarians don't pull people's theories out of their sockets when they're challenged.  Ducks are known to do that.

I took the better part of an afternoon once digging for this WoJ quote and came up empty handed. If it is real, it likely died in a server glitch at some point. If a Beta or two wants to comfirm this or denie this (as they help find these sort of things) then I would take it as almost as good as a WoJ.

If the BK or necromancy in general can be tied somehow to the outsiders or the outside, it impacts quite a few plot threads.

I know Lovecraft kind of mixed the dead with his unspeakable outside horrors – but that in no way means that is what JB is doing.
Last night I had a vision. The World in flames. Terror and death spreading across the globe in an unstoppable wave, destroying anything resembling order or civilization. At the center of it – I saw Mister. Sitting there grooming himself, looking disinterested.

i think the BC are going beyond the gate seeking power. theoretically its possible for them to survive and return.

The Betas or Serack should know this. At worst we'll have to ask another time.

I made a search, it seems it's a widely believed legend on the forum, and that absolutely no one has proof it's true. A thread on the subject.

I have a feeling that it was in an Amazon comment.

ill swear its true. im dang sure ive read it, along with another comment Jim said about the Black Court i had favorited but cant find now.. the one where he says the blacks will ebimprotant later, 'because hes too lazy a writer to put that much work into something and not use it.'

I had it sourced because i was using it to back up my 'lovecraft theory' back in 2010

Interesting, here Is what I found.

Jim answers a question here about thomas being able to find the deeps through the NN, and then 2 posts later someone asks about that very issue with no response from Jim that I can find.  Nothing else in the WoJ section seems to come close. 

We are having technical difficulties with the 2009 bitten by books Q&A so I can't check that directly.

from what i recall, it is from a transcript of a question and answer session, if that helps any. you recall having a thread of 'stuff to be transcrptied' that would late be put into your index? it was in there.
