Tisarwatt is babygirl. I did miss Seivarden, she wasn't in this as much. I also loved Translator Dlique, a shame they weren't in more of the book (<- my non smart person opinions)
Also adding this book to the ever growing list of "contemporary sci fi that features last minute amateur brain surgery". Is everyone okay?

"That hold," I interrupted, "is not suitable for use on citizens. And it's entirely possible to suffocate someone by kneeling on their back that way." Which was fine if you didn't care whether the person you were dealing with lived or not.
