\"Monday<\/a>The ninth comic jumps back and forth in time, both in the present day, as well as into Nightingale’s past.
<\/p>\n

\"MondayFirst think I really liked about this story: Stephanopoulus. We get a lot of her POV. Also, she is described pretty much exactly as she is in the books. <\/p>\n

She is good at her job, and we get to see that.<\/p>\n

(Also, we get to see the chickens.)
<\/p>\n

\"MondaySecondly, we get to see pieces of Nightingale’s past: his time and school and brief glimpses of the war.<\/p>\n

The bad thing here, is that I initially couldn’t figure out who the hell the character was supposed to be. Nightingale looks plastic, like he’s had too much plastic surgery.<\/p>\n

That is just squicky.
<\/p>\n

\"MondayThe third thing we some Abigail getting into trouble. Which is to be expected. Though her companion in trouble wasn’t expected.<\/p>\n

And finally, we get some important glimpses into Peter’s family life, including his twin daughters.<\/p>\n

I found myself enjoying those bits, especially once I realized why they were important.<\/p>\n

So there is stuff that is definintely going to be referenced in the books, although I don’t think it was in the last novel (I’ve listened to so many books since I read that, I don’t clearly remember all the details).<\/p>\n
