Discussion thread for Agatha H. and the Clockwork Princess. Beware, Here There be SPOILERS

[hippogrif]

Welcome.

This is a thread for discussing the Girl Genius novelization Agatha H. and the Clockwork Princess, as well as all Girl Genius in general. The subject matter is the property of Phil and Kaja Foglio.

No spoilers are required in this thread. The assumption is you've read the material already. That is why this thread exists--to provide a place for people to talk without having to try to avoid giving away secrets.

I own this account. If you're rude or a jackass, I will delete your post. If you're debating in good faith and not annoying the natives, I won't. If people really can't behave, I'll delete the whole fershlugginer thread.

Have fun. Talk at will. If you don't want spoilers, run away now.

Hippogrif.

Re: Gil's Age

[claudeng]

Something else that pops out of the age and the new sewer-closing timeline, if one makes a few assumptions: Assume that Tarvek and Gil are the same age so they're 22 "now". Assume that Zoing is Gil's breakthrough construct and occurred soon after Tarvek was sent home - means Tarvek was approximately 8 when sent home to Sturmhalten. Vrin states that they've been under Sturmhalten for 14 years. 8+14=22. So the Geisters arrived at close to the same time that Tarvek came home. Things around Sturmhalten must have been verrrry interesting that year.

Geisters and the Deepdown

[greybeardfan]

We now have the connection called out: the Deepdown was closed down to open the spaces to the Geisters. Now, to whom did those glowy monsters belong? Were they old Sturmvoraus creations or something from Lu or the Geisters?

And how did Higgs deal with them? We do see those monsters in the sepia (http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070404).
