Oh! Then nevermind. :P Point held. That's...just wow. Two mistakes with the same character in the same book. Did she even read it before she shipped it off to her so called publishers? Editors? Whoever. And everyone missed that...? I'm sorry, but that's just sad.
I'm really agreeing with you that she pretty much makes a better villain right now than she does a "heroine." Maybe what seperates here from the "real" bad guys is that she doesn't "enjoy" killing anyone and all the bad shit comes to her...? Who knows. >< All I can say is she can't keep hopping the fence onto the bad side and then go back to the good side and expect people to keep liking her.
I think I wanna see what you did. :) Is it posted anywhere?
And what I really find rather disgusting is how everyone just has to fall in love with her or like her. Anyone who doesn't tends to have bad things happen to them or they're villified for some reason or another. That's what I liked about Richard despite how people saw him as whiny. At least he said no and put his foot down (somewhat and momentarily) in The Harlequin. I wanna see more people doing that...and staying like that instead of suddenly defecting a book later. ._.
