Oh wow. That's so cool. I'm also reading Lies of Locke Lamora. It's really great. Very happy that I didn't get into it until now since Scott was basically hit with divorce which exacerbated his depression after the second book. Looks like the third one should be around by the time I read the second book.
I'm actually bummed out because I was hanging out outside teh hotel at CONvergence and I had a choice of either hanging out with Scott, Elizabeth and company or flirting with this woman that I met in the most stupid way possible (ie, the "oh sure, show me your short stories" way which then leads me to reading the damn things and trying to be nice because I'm flirting but I'm also highly critical) and while I'm looking at her chart of characters (which was way more interesting than the story itself) Scott was nearby talking about a friend from LARPing days who became a Nazi for a time and really how hard it is to maintain a friendship with a man who has way too much to say abotu the Holocaust and Jews. Seriously, THAT was a conversation that I wanted to hear.
(I also just finished reading a book by someone that I like personally but the book was boring ass steampunk with dull characters and some bullshit about clocks)
