I wonder if we'll finally, excuse the French, fucking find out how he >lost the finger. Are you kidding? The finger story is classic Brust teasing his audience. It's also the embodiment of the concept of the unreliable narrator. Every time Vlad tells a different version of the story of how he lost it, we are reminded what a consumate liar he can be. This gives SKZB an out for almost any inconsistency in the entire Vlad series. In summary: We all want to know the facts, he gives us the finger. ;-) Majikjon
