It seemed an appropriate time for a snippet. Kami’s parents are designedly very present-and-not-evil in the Lynburn Legacy, and in Unmade Jon Glass gets plenty to do, so here’s…

No Lillian, I'm afraid. But just think of how into it she would be. ;)

Wonderfully, horrifyingly into it.

I figure that in these situations, a parent tries to DO SOMETHING.

Something that goes well? Well...

Ah! Ah! Ah! WHOA! HOLD THE FREAKING PHONE! Sarah, why?! I can't wait any longer for this book!!!!

Only a little while now. ;)

Because. ;)

Jon Glass is the man.

He is my favourite parent, I admit. ;)

Whoa, man. Not that I didn't think Jon had the guts to do something like that, but whoa. Now I need this book. Well, I needed it before, but now my conviction has been renewed.

He is a brave guy!

Of course, he's also young for the parent of a teenager--Kami talks about how she did a lot of parenting for herself and her grandmother co-parented her, and he and Claire both made a lot of important life decisions when young, and Jon lived with his mother until her death, which was less than a year ago--so he can also be reckless...
