I'm not going to read any of the other posts in this thread yet because I'm only halfway through the book. I don't wanna get spoiler-ed. But I did want to mention something I noticed. The punctuation in this book seems a little off from what I'm used to seeing from unca Stevie. There are spots where it seems a comma would usually be (but isn't) while other places seem inordinately littered with 'em. Just seems a bit off to me. Different editor, perhaps?
