A speculative thought on the next Dresden Files

[sholio]

I just had a really horrible thought, which I've been heartlessly inflicting on the commenters in my last Dresden Files thread.

This book was all about marking a turning point in the series and in Harry's life. I'd been blithely assuming that Harry couldn't possibly be dead, at least not permanently, because he's the narrator. But then I got to wondering -- What if Butcher is planning on switching narrators?

He could do just about anything. The whole next book could be all about Harry's friends putting together a posse to go rescue him from heaven or hell or wherever he ends up*. Or Harry could be dead for good and it could suddenly be Maggie's story. Or ... anything!

Let's have a POLL.

(*Now that I've had this thought, I really want it.)

Yeah; I do have a teensy bit of worry that Harry might actually be dead, but really, it's a miniscule possibility; mostly I'm just very, very curious what Butcher has in mind! I actually think it would be nifty to get a different POV for a while, as long as we get Harry back eventually. ^^
