Ok, phew, satisfying ending.

I see the novellas plus a new one are being collected in one volume in March, so I think I will tentatively schedule my reread around that.

Ok, phew, satisfying ending.

Oh wow, I'm still only about halfway in! But good to know.

Not being able to remember the details of what happened in the previous 8 is not hampering my enjoyment of this book,

I checked just in case, and I have read none of them! So I put them in my queue to start at the beginning rather than diving in at the end. I do like a nice long series to live with for a while.

Its amazing how much you can read in a day when you don't do anything else. No regrets

Is the Last Graduate REALLY the finale of that ‘verse?

Signed,

Just finished reading it o.m.g.

There's a third book coming next year, sumi! That was... quite the ending, for sure.

OMG is right

I finished Witness for the Dead and started Angel of the Crows. How did I miss that it's an AU Sherlock Holmes story? Loving it so far!

Sherlock wingfic! Good stuff. Eta wingfic is not generally my thing, but I liked Angel of the Crows a lot

In case anyone is using a screen reader, the screenshot in his tweet comes from this Facebook post: [link] — the text of which reads:

Dearest People of Page. This is Anne’s son Christopher and it breaks my heart to bring you this sad news. Earlier tonight, Anne passed away due to complications resulting from a stroke. She left us almost nineteen years to the day my father, her husband Stan, died. The immensity of our family’s grief cannot be overstated. As my mother, her support for me was unconditional — she taught me to embrace my dreams, reject conformity and challenge the dark voices of fear and self-doubt. As a writer, she taught me to defy genre boundaries and surrender to my obsessive passions. In her final hours, I sat beside her hospital bed in awe of her accomplishments and her courage, awash in memories of a life that took us from the fog laced hills of the San Francisco Bay Area to the magical streets of New Orleans to the twinkling vistas of Southern California. As she kissed Anne goodbye, her younger sister Karen said, "What a ride you took us on, kid." I think we can all agree. Let us take comfort in the shared hope that Anne is now experiencing firsthand the glorious answers to many great spiritual and cosmic questions, the quest for which defined her life and career. Throughout much of her final years, your contributions to this page brought her much joy, along with a profound sense of friendship and community. Anne will be interred in our family's mausoleum at Metairie Cemetery in New Orleans in a private ceremony. Next year, a celebration of her life will take place in New Orleans. This event will be open to the public and will invite the participation of her friends, readers and fans who brought her such joy and inspiration throughout her life.
