    Lovely original novella. Starts off joyful, twinges suddenly toward tragedy, and develops satisfyingly into a complex richness. A love story to lives well lived -- and to the interdependencies of urban living.

    Summary

    Tying up loose ends is part of Hendricks' job. Sometimes that's not even a euphemism for murder. But this is going to take a personal touch, and Hendricks might get a little tied up in it.

    We see basically nothing in canon of the damage Dresden leaves behind, except inasmuch as it's "Oh, we all love Harry, and we mourn him so!" This is a great look at the people around him who have to deal with the shrapnel, whether its convenient or not.

    And man does it make me want POV Maggie fic. And not "my two gay dads, as seen by Maggie," but middle grade / YA style POV respected main child character, ripped from her home, country, language, and safely mundane life.

    This is the first really fat positive, fat-as-sexy m/m I've ever read. Now I need to go reread _Bet Me_.

    It should not be possible to make this not be crack, but somehow this is a serious story which is magically true both the spirit of Torchwood and the spirit of Pigs in Space. How does that even work? That's like having a delicious mustard and cabbage pudding with whipped cream. And yet at the same time, It also offers thoughtful critique of character flaws in both Miss Piggy and Jack Harkness. Genius.

    Summary

    I had been on a walk with Flavian, when Bernard and I were both new. We had run into a salamander, and it had ended with me needing sixteen stitches and Bernard unable to sit down for a week. Christopher did warn me—"I shouldn't go if I were you, Hester; hiking is not one of the mandatory subjects"—but I'd trusted my previous experiences with teachers more than I'd trusted Christopher; and besides, my name isn't Hester.

    Christopher and the young enchanters go to the circus. Conrad and Flavian go for a walk in the forest. Things go very wrong.

    Long, plotty, in the spirit of the original, developing characters who are only mentioned as set dressing in the source. Wonderful.

    I can't speak to the authenticness and respectfulness of the way the non--English magic and culture are used, but they seem respectful to me as an outsider.
