BTW: at the end of this paperback, there was a message from Butcher about this other series of his: Codex Alera. Have you read any of those? If so, worth investigating?
Book 8:
I agree with Murphy...sadly. They can't pair off. I liked that Molly ends up with Harry. As I teacher, I can only feel for the pain, the frustration and the satisfaction awaiting him in that role. :-)
I had wondered about Charity. She struck me as really strong for a terciary character.
Mouse getting hurt. JB had better NOT kill Mouse off. Besides, Chinese mythological protector dogs live long lives. (Don't they?)
Michael coming to the rescue, with Ebenezer. :-)
The Gatekeeper is getting more interesting and frustrating. Who the hell is he really!
OMG! With JB's long-plotting...is Harry to be the next Merlin? What has Lea promised Margaret LeFay (sister to Morgana, is she?) in relation to Harry? Will the Fallen demon Lasciel have her wicked ways with our Harry? And who the hell is pulling all the strings in the background?
I liked this on. As you said. better than 7. BUT I want more with Thomas. I think JB is underusing Thomas.
Well, that's it for this series. Yes, I know there's a ninth, but I'll wait until it's out in pb.
Many thanks again. I really have had fun with this series.

I loved Sue the Zombie T-Rex.
Butters finding his courage...
The zombies made a nice change from the Vampires.
