I too am confused. Two books? Unless he's already got another book lined up for 2021 why not string out the releases?

I wonder if the book just got too big and they decided to cut it in half? I bet peace talks ends on a massive cliffhanger.


He used to talk about the book after PEACE TALKS being MIRROR MIRROR didn't he? So at a guess? PEACE TALKS got away from him in the writing (lengthwise) and instead of trying to cram it all into one volume and sacrificing story of pacing, he's split it into two, resulting in BATTLE GROUND?

That's my guess.

That's possible. I think I heard that the chapter count for Peace Talks is much less than what Butcher said when he was finishing it up.

Ok I'll be the one to say it. Movie trailers for books is weird.

Also, why is there a scene of Dresden and Marcone putting their pants back on together...?!

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

It's destiny, D'rek.

I agree book trailers are weird especially when it's low budget Hallmark channel acting with a cast that looks nothing like your own mental images.

I dunno, that Dresden, Lara, AND Thomas look pretty damned close to what I had in my head. Marcone should be way older...silver haired.

Yeah I thought Dresden looked spot on. Ebenezar too, though low budget.

I'm just glad Ebenezar is in this book.

The trailer is weird. Although trailers for books is a weird concept to begin with.

Jim tweeted a petition to release Peace Talks early. Since he tweeted it it sounds like he's in support of it, so I wonder if the publisher will listen.
