Subject: God I loved this book .. Sherri is BACK!!

The last one (Dream hunter) just didn't grab me like usual, so I was sooooooooooo very very happy this one seems more back on form. Couple of things that haven't been mentioned here yet. I'll do seperate questions for them so here goes:

Who do you think was the human woman killed with the double bow tattoo by Kessar? I reckon that was some "hint" about a future book. She was killed, but then tossed aside. Was she in the lot that they disposed of or was she allowed to become a gallu? She was described in a fairly detailed way. Did anyone else pick up on this girlie?

[> I noticed her, thought she would be important and then forgot her when she died so abruptly. But I've just re-read the scene (p151) and there's so much detail it's just...odd! And we never actually see Nabium dispose of her as ordered. My first thought is, she's the right age to be Tory - could someone look up Tory's description as I foolishly didn't keep The Dream Hunter. -- Beth, 23:31:13 08/06/07 Mon [1]

[> [> My second thought is, she said the tattoo was protection from nightmares. And who do we now know sends (literally) killer nightmares? Xipher! Also, the tattoo means she's under the protection of Artemis, who never stirs herself unless there's a damn good reason. And if she was pregnant (not sure if she was lying to try and save herself), could that be important too? -- Beth, 23:38:32 08/06/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> Beth I think you could be on to something here. Tory is described in Dream Hunter as "average height" with "long drab brown hair and thick glasses" p14. I can't find a reference to her eye colour but the similarities otherwise seem a little too much to be a coincidence? -- Melanie

[> Her tattoo totally got my attention,but then I thought,'Eh' when she was killed.It could be significant if she was telling the truth about being pregnant.I really disregarded Tory in the Dream-Hunter,although I can see where she could possibly be Ash's heroine. -- Bo, 06:10:22 08/09/07 Thu [1]

[> I thought there was much to much detail for her to just be killed. No I don't think she is Tory, for some reason I picture her as tall. She was only 14 or 15 at the time of Dreamhunter. 2 possibilities, one (Beth's theory) Xypher. Or maybe, it was SK's way of saying Hey Girl to some of her fans.LOL -- Gabmar, 11:10:11 08/10/07 Fri [1]

[> It was never specifically said that the order was carried out There's no cure for turning Gallu except for what Ash did for Katra - but Kat hadn't changed all the way yet.. whether this girl is Tori or not, she'll be coming back, if she does, as a complete Gallu. But Xipher will be human , if he makes the cut, and the only way to "save" Tori is to drain her..but Xipher can't .... so um, Where was I going with this? I can't see those two girls coming back as redeemed but as new enemies - I say both girls because the order was for both to be beheaded yet we don't know that either one was dispatched. -- Michele N, 11:41:05 08/11/07 Sat [1]

[> There is definitely something with the girl because he made such a show of reading her name, otherwise I wouldn't have thought much of it. But his reading the name seemed to have meaning. -- Leiha
