I would just like to thank the almighty FDO and his fellow authors for dropping story crossovers into their books.  I am a jazz musician I like to quote historically significant players and their typical motifs in my own solos as a tip of the hat to them.  I really get a kick out of characters dropping into the story from other places/stories, it's like my own little Easter egg hunt.  Thank you for not just great stories but for a new project to start (Easter Egg hunting across authors).
