Here's another plot thread. Something about dust, and something about kidnapping children. Obviously these are connected - every narrative law demands it - but the main character shouldn't figure it out quite this easily. To her it'd all feel like too much of a coincidence. But so it goes.

At any rate, things are picking up.

It's been quarter-century since I last read this book, and even then it was just the one time and never picked up the sequels anyway. I remember almost nothing - bears, daemons, high concepts, no details. And I rather feel like the first chapter was a bit of a wasted space that could largely have been skipped, but after that it's been picking up.

[Name Redacted] I remember feeling the first book was overrated, the second was solid, and the third was awful.
