Jack won't have any fix-it jobs. He'll be busy trying to keep himself and Gia and Vicky and his friends =alive." "Oh...ad:"
And yes, the feckless Englishman Richard Westphalen was Vicky's forebear. But Jack is her =father.=

Nightworld spoiler
But even with the world in shambles, the Otherness could still want to have a try at winning earth. Though Glaeken will be restaured as the watcher.... drat...
BTW, is it better to warn of a possible spoiler before saying something about Nightworld of another book?

I wonder how FPW will gather together all the threads from Repairman Jack before Nightworld. Many topics are not addressed to in Nightworld (normal since it was previously written) and will have to be settled one way or another before it.
Or a different ending?
Lysistrata Wrote:Abe becomes the new watcher? (or Vicky, or Julio, or Dawn's baby, or Jack's brother)?
Nightworld's night last three years and the gods fight (with Rasalom as Loki) and then it's paradise on earth (Ragnarok fulfilled)?
The dog ladies find the Otherness AND the Ally and disable them?
Jack finds a way to put a shield on earth to protect is from the superpowers? (OK, that one sounds too much like a tinfoil hat)

Lysistrata Wrote:that's it - a nice aluminium bibi on our planet, keeping those pesky powers out and useless Mars rockets in (what do we need them for anyway?).
Bluesman Mike Lindner Wrote:We need Mars rockets because it's human nature to explore...to understand.
