Wolfe says to Santi: "In bocca al lupo" Apparently that really is Italian for "Good luck", but how on earth does a language develop an idiom where "into the mouth of the wolf" becomes "good luck"? English would never do anything so ridiculous! :-)

Finally back to this.
Dario comes back to the room and keeps Jess awake with his snoring, and I think "half of the students are gone—why are they still sharing rooms?" Half a page later, Jess is deciding to move into one of the empty rooms! I like it when an author times things that well (after all, Jess could have moved earlier, but he hadn't thought to, either).

any alternate history that wants to convince me that a Berliner finds the idea of a Welsh-English war difficult is going to have to give me a lot more back story.
