My current questions:
1a. When will Harry comeback to life? *I can not see the series lasting with him as a Ghost.
1b.Will Harry be Harry when he comes back or will it be a Luccio type situation?
2. Will his daughter ever get to know him, as her dad, or will it be McCoy all over again? *How cool is that, btw.  I'm so happy Harry handled the news as well as he did. Of course, I don't think he would have, if it had not been for Maggie.
3. Will Murphy be his partner in crime, literally, now that she is no longer a police officer, or will she be persuaded to pick up the sword once and for all?
4.What the heck is Cold Days about so that I might be able to get some clues to these questions -

Or not, for instance how would aftermath be as poignant without Harry's demise having happened that way?

Hmmm....maybe.

I'm not gonna' tell you!

...er....your guess is as good ans mine, but consider 6 or 7 more books before the final trilogy?
3. Will Murphy be his partner in crime, literally, now that she is no longer a police officer, or will she be persuaded to pick up the sword once and for all?
....er.....same as above!
4.What the heck is Cold Days about so that I might be able to get some clues to these questions - 
You'll have to figure it out after you've completed reading Ghost Story.

I really appreciated the comic relief type conversations through out the otherwise, really intense, book.
