Is Faraday ever going to have a happy ending?
I would dearly like to squash her under a huge pumpkin studded with rusty twelve-inch nails so that she dies a lingering, painful death from blood poisoning and a badly leaking belly, and I reserve the right to do so any time I feel like it. (Of course, by the time you get to the end of “Crusader” you’ll see that that is not quite the fate I’ve given her … nevertheless, I’ve been nasty enough …) 2005 update: Faraday will not, never, no way José, ever appear in the new Tencendor series, Darkglass Mountain.
