I very much appreciated the NathanPyle Strange Planet cartoon you shared :) I think he summed your feelings up well! And I'm glad you're enjoying Hermione's return to Pigpimples and her attempts to find the plans for the Goblet of Firepower too.

A new perspective
Waterfalls pour from steel structure like tears of an ancient God,
(And who’s to say they’re not?)
And I have a new perspective: while the waters are still rising
I cannot escape a sinking feeling.

Greg - yeah, Strange Planet is pretty great. Got the book a bit over a year ago.

Beautiful imagery in the opening, with a delightful sense of foreboding in the ending.
