Manual of Aeronautics

It came out!  I got one!

My only regret is that it did not come in some ridiculously huge poster-sized format.  I would have bought that.

Highlights for me:

• The deck cutaways illustrating scenes from the book (we see you filching breakfast, Deryn!).
• The character bio for Dylan Sharp.  I dunno, that cracked me up.
• The (presumed) death of Rusty.
• Knowing

But Julia, I already made a post! D:
Ah well.

Yes, those were my favorite bits too! And the end papers in general. Man, were those a dedication to the fanbase. (Like the box. And the presence of Adela. I think Scott knows why the fandom likes her so much. AND IT'S ALL MY FAULT.)

What! Rats! I thought I'd checked far enough back and - you know what, I apologize for double-posting and I lay all blame at the feet of the new school year. My brain is mush. Sorry. :(

That's fine! I totally understand. School started on thursday for me and I'm trying to get my brain to catch up.

I expected it to be a larger format as well. Then I could have bought two and framed pages from one. XD Though I guess it is nice that it is the same height as the novels, and can fit well on the shelf with them.

"Dylan's" bio made me laugh too. How long is she going to manage to hide it?

I have to admit I missed the bit about the lorises, I am not as careful of a reader as I would like to think. Hope your fic works out. :)
