1) that cover is awesome. I really like the infrequent white covers that stand out from the dark ones.

2) i dunno what's up with the hat. he's never, ever worn one in any book i can think of, and i suspect the cover artist is just fixated on that 'look' or something. In the WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE GN the visual of the trenchcoat and staff work just fine without a cowboy hat.

that's a pretty fast turnaround for the cover. We usually don't see it til much later in the year iirc.

Yay!

Yes, if Dresden was a Wizard in the eighteen hundreds.

But he doesn't wear other kinds of head ware than caps with silly logos on them.

Yes.... Mavra, I believe is her name.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.
