Tying up the series... - XiaoYu - 06-03-2010
Did we ever hear further about the fixit Jack did in which he had Gia paint tattoos on his knuckles, maybe in a short story I might've missed?

I remember Gia drawing the Kicker "tattoo" on for him. Is that what you're thinking of?

That's the only one I can think of... but my memory has been off lately.

My grandfather's people were herb doctors and granny women and they had a bona fide snakebite cure you might have been interested to know during that roundup. I've seen it work a miracle overnight LOLHave you ever read any Louis L'Amoure? I think you would really like William Tell Sackett. (You'd probably like all the Sackett novels, but five of them are based on William Tell. The rest are about his family members and each of them tell a tale.( A lot of over riding stories in the arch) Or maybe "Ride The River" which is about Echo Sackett... the only book he's written (that I've read) from a female perspective. She's strait out of the hills of Tennessee.
One thing about living on a farm - you learn a lot that you don't know you're learning until you sit down at the dinner table and realize that you're the reason some of that food is there for the whole family to eat. City kids don't get to feel that kind of pride.
We were all taught gun safety and to shoot the bullseye of a target by the time we entered school. We couldn't afford to waste bullets and always retrieved our brass and lead to reuse. We had a great respect for firearms as tools that can feed us and keep us safe. Everybody had to know how to hunt food, and to kill the foxes that raided the henhouse and the snakes that still like to sun themselves on the walkway. I'm sure part of your own childhood included taking part in periodic nightwatches for foxes. Or maybe coyotes in Kansas?

I've watched the Sackett movies and loved every minute of them, but haven't read the books. My brother inherited my grandmother's leather bound Louis L'Amoure collection because he read them over and over. I'm going to have to get my own set of these books so I can soak them in at my leisure.
Thanks for the tip about "Ride the River." I'll be sure to check that one out on my next trip to the library.

I haven't cracked into FATAL ERROR yet, so there's a chance that this may be moot, but I'd love to see the Kenton brothers make a final appearance. I know that there was a cameo a few books back, but a new moment or two with them would be fun.
I also understand that this is far from being necessary to tie up a loose end, and so would be a low-priority request.

That's good news! I've always wondered where Jack met all his shady friends...

Simple. In the shade.
