I apologise if I offended anyone. I do agree with the 2 "big spoilers" you
listed (Godslayer and the sexy Jhereg) -- but we just finished a big
discussion about that particular information (Namely, _Issola_) in which
said spoiler was tossed about without protection.

This lead me to assume that spoiler protection was not needed for a book
which is, chronologically in both our world and theirs, earlier.

Where exactly do we draw the line?

Is it "bad form" to discuss Khaavren's appearance in _Teckla_ with notes
about the _Romances_ because some readers of _Teckla_ may not have read
_TPG_ and suchly? I maintain this list is, for the most part, "reader
beware" in its entirety.

If I'm wrong let me know.

PS, I meant my post to stimulate discussion about the gods, not about
spoiler protection...sigh.
