Oh dear... that does sound worrisome!

On a lighter note, as I was driving home this evening, a big black pickup truck pulled up next to me at a stoplight, and when I glanced over at it, I saw the sign on the side said "Curran Roofing - New & Repairs" -- it totally cracked me up, thinking of him coming to repair her roof.  (Then I wondered what the guy inside the truck looked like, but he had pulled ahead by then and I couldn't see him!)

Quote from Ilona's Twitter/Facebook feed concerning Kate 5:

Ilona Andrews  I'm killing one of my favorite characters and I don't like it.


Yeek.


Oh Noooooooooo! Is worried.  :-\

I love it!  LOL

I had a thought last night while I was skimming Magic Strikes again.

Roland will know something is up when Erra ends up dead. So he will send someone to check it out (he can't come himself yet or the series will end too soon) and who will they go to? With unlimited cash Rolands informer will go to the best... Saiman. What if he gets caught in the crossfire and dies?  :-'

He's one of those characters that you love to hate.

Sadly, as long as it's not Derek, I'll be okay. I love that kid and I think Julie's suffered enough, with her parents and Red... but that's just me.

I don't want to write the great American novel. I want to write the great American beach read. It pays better!

Had the same thoughts. T.T
But yeah, still better than anyone else.

I saw the "have to kill one of my faves" post today. I like the Saiman angle, it makes sense. I just hope it's not Andrea or Raphael. Or Curran, though I don't think he's at risk. For now. :P

Curran! No way, no how! He better be as safe as a spork!

I would miss Saiman too.

Just a thought... It would be interesting if it was Aunt B, especially since she wanted Andrea to take over as Alpha one day.

Could it be Julie?  I mean, she's not a "main" character, so it would be "easy" to kill her off.  And Ilona did say "Poor Julie."  So maybe Julie's the one who gets the axe.
I could not deprive you of the realization of all you could accomplish together, and of a friendship that will define you both in ways you cannot begin to imagine.

I think we're all avoiding that thought Nifty... Don't think it and it won't happen! *crosses fingers and toes*

Am I in the minority? I don't care for Saiman at all so if he got killed off I'd be fine with it.  >D
