Heads up! Twicks is changing the thread title back to the original, so any spoilers for events past the first book should be boxed.

And if you feel like I do about boxes, maybe there should be a thread encompassing the entire series.

Done.

Folks, none of the Cafe Society mods is familiar with this series, so if you need us to add spoiler boxes to something, pls. be very specific about what needs to be boxed. We’re all happy to help, but just saying “there’s a spoiler in this post” leaves us in the dark about what the spoiler is. Say something like “the whole second paragraph” or “everything between words X and Y in the last paragraph” or whatever.

Thanks!
