I'm not even halfway through and it's easily the bloodiest book in the series, with multiple gutwrenching moments

It definitely had a lot of "oh shit" moments
It seriously has. IDK who's going to die by the end but I expect to cry. If it's Butters I quit the series.

I finished yesterday.

It was like getting kicked in the dick every couple of pages, but I wanted it.

I pre-ordered it as soon as the release date was announced. I was expecting a large package the day it released so I was really confused when I got a tiny box. Opened it after work and was immediately like "OH SHIT!" and read the entire thing the next day lmao

I did that before Peace Talks, rereading all 14 at the time books and adding short stories for the first time.. Very worth it, especially since a lot of the short stories were referenced in it.

Wish I had at least read Peace Talks again before Battle Ground though since for the first time it's literally minutes after the previous book.

But also yeah, Battle Ground was a fucking brutal read. I'm glad the Christmas Eve story was included with it because that at least offered some form of happy feels in it.

I was CONVINCED Mac was gonna be an Outsider, specifically He Who Walks Beside.

So I guessed the true identity of Nemesis but I was WAY off base.

Whatever.

I'm still right about Merlin being imprisoned in Demonreach

Saw a really neat fan theory that it's actually King Arthur

He's my second choice, would make sense seeing as one of the Swords still needs a wielder.

I just think Merlin would be better, we're getting into the high-level shit and it doesn't get more high-level in the magic game.

How could it be Merlin? Merlin is going to turn out to be Harry lol

I'm thinking he built Demonreach and put himself in there, for reasons having to do with back when Mab was mortal.

Seeing as how Mab is almost definitely Morgana.

Harry has ties to Merlin (the journals McCoy has, that sort of thing) but he isn't straight up him.

I mean as far as our Murphy goes I think she's gone until the big apocalyptic trilogy where she probably will return as a Valkyrie due to Vadderung pulling some strings, but in the several books before then I think we'll have Murphy from the alternate universe in Mirror Mirror come back with Harry somehow because it's likely that world is fucked - she won't be a full time replacement but I feel like she'd probably appear at least once outside of MM

Yeah, I was being an idiot.

Im guessing in the apocalyptic trilogy that Demonreach is going to be cracked open, since thats what Justine seemed to be trying to do, so I guess well find out then
