SPOILER ZONE: Archangel's Prophecy

Thread Closed

For the first time in the over ten-year history of this blog, a spoiler thread is being shut down. I don't monitor the spoiler threads, and generally run a very relaxed and hands-off comment policy, far more so than many authors. However, as it is my blog, I have a trusted friend who keeps an eye on the comments to ensure no reader is being impolite to another, as everyone should feel welcome to post. 

There have been any number of highly critical comments about my books left on the blog over the years. All have been left up as I've always encouraged a vibrant discussion. I do, however, expect everyone to act like adults and to discuss the book (however critical that discussion may be), not resort to insulting me personally. Unfortunately, it appears this simple expectation of politeness is too much for some - yet regardless of this, the thread was allowed to continue. However, the lack of civility has now bled over into comments directed at fellow readers, and that is something I will not countenance.

As a result, and because I've been told there is little to no actual book discussion happening, I've made the call to close the thread. Comments have not been deleted but have been put into hibernation because no author should be expected to host such behavior on their own blog. It makes the space toxic for everyone, including readers. 

My apologies to those of you who wanted a discussion space to talk about the characters and the storyline. The Facebook spoiler group will run to the end of November, and there are multiple unofficial fan groups online where you can discuss the book. I am not a member of any of them, so I can't recommend one over the other, but I'm guessing most of them have their own rules and they're probably much stricter than mine. So please go into those spaces with respect for the people who created them.
