Mr Serine wrote: To me it looked like she transformed that truck into energy and stored it. Is that what you thought too? It did. I would assume she can reconstitute it back into its original form, or else why care about the supplies? She could just convert whatever was lying around, and they've stated they need the supplies specificaly. Or perhaps it's some sort of ultra-miniaturization? That seems unlikely, but who knows? In any case, huge sigh of relief Fiona's okay!

It sure looks like the big moral theme of this volume is about keeping secrets. I like that they recognize that there can be compelling reasons for doing so, as well as for being transparent, and that there are ramifications either way. It would have been easy to just make a simplistic cliche out of it (secrets bad...openness good), but they're taking a more nuanced, realistic approach.

I loved Nora's impassioned speech. Mostly we get Comic Relief Nora, so I always appreciate when it's shown there's a lot more to her than that. I also enjoyed the continuation of Robyn's tendency to nickname people with one of their overt traits...so many possibilities!
