I need to know what happened to Tom on the other side. And does Jack still have that old lady's skin? I don't remember. Also, does Jack ever run into his neighbors? You'd think he lives alone in that building.
They passed an old woman who was just opening the door of a brown Cadillac. An old man was already sitting in the passenger seat. The car had a personalized plate with the letters “J-U-S-P-R-A-Y”.
“That stuff work?” Israel said to her.
“‘Scuse me?” the little old woman said, clutching her keys.
“The spray. Does it keep them away?”
“Keep who away?” She looked confused.
“I gotcha.” Israel gave her a conspiratorial wink.

Some of his neighbors were mentioned in The Tomb.

Mentioned, I believe, in Ground Zero.

Sorry for beating a dead horse (though, certainly, it is a better alternative to beating a live one), and yes, I know this probably cannot be addressed within any of the remaining Repairman Jack novels...but....just a friendly reminder that you created a wonderful character in KOLABATI, with a TON of unused and unaddressed backstory to her entire life (not to mention the amazing apocalyptic journey she must have had travelling from Hawaii to New York City in NIGHTWORLD).
Hoping and praying that when you wrap up the RJ series, you can write a Kolabati novel...one which jumps back and forth from her Nightworld journey from Hawaii to New York, and her complete life story from birth to death...kind of a "Secret History of Kolabati."
I'm not suggesting a RetCon, but saying it is easy to imagine that she is so much more (perhaps dramatically more) than the few actions she's shown doing, and the few thoughts she expressed in RAKOSHI and NIGHTWORLD.
Yes...another Fanboy rant. But, there you have it.
Kind regards,
Michael

Just remember, if you forget to explain something about the Otherness, just write a stand alone novel for it. That'd probably be a better way to learn about the Infernals, the Compendium and the First Age.
