A slight turn around. Erevis at 53%. |

I am a bit surprised Cale won by just 3%. But still a win is a win. Better than a dagger in the brain that for sure. |

I'm really surprised this one is as close as it is. Kim Harrison is huge, so I figured Cale would just get swamped. Nice to be wrong.
So hey, if you haven't voted, why not go ahead and do so? It's all in fun. Plus I'm having a blast doing the write-ups, so please make me do another one. :-)

It has swung back the other way and it's now Rachel Morgan in the lead with 53%. If you're an Erevis Cale fan cast your votes now. |

Damn it all, this one is turning into a real nail-biter. |

It's neck and neck with both characters at 50%. |

Cale seems to have regained the lead. Go Cale, go! Much rather see him up against Kylar than the this Rachel chick. |

Argh I fear the Rachel fans are exploiting the system.
I read the comments. Apparently Rachel fans have been exploiting a bug which allows them to vote multiple times. They clear history, open up private browsers or proxy servers, and cast multiple votes. I was skeptical at first, so I tried it once. It, unfortunately, works. Cale was 400 votes clear of winning barely an hour and a half ago.
The lengths rabid fangirls will go to =( |

-What is wrong with people?
-The lengths that people will go to on the internet to "get their way" is something that comes as no surprise to me, sadly, based on things I've seen people do.  |

I do hope you cast your vote, Sage. |

Assure us Cale will be back, and I'll go give him 100 votes! lol |

As I mentioned on my FB page: It's unfortunate when folks behave that way, but (and I suspect this could go without saying) please do not respond in kind on Cale's behalf. And I mean that very seriously. This is supposed to be a fun little deal, exposing folks to new characters and writers, scratching the X v. Y itch, etc. And that's it. It is not, in any way, shape, or form, a big deal. |

It's a rather strange match. I don't read Harrison. And, needless to say, I cast my vote for Cale.
[Anyone read Harrison?] |

Hmm, looking at the line-up, the only time I will have a hard decision is if Cale eventually ends up opposite Revan. |

-Depends on if it's the canon, official Revan, who became a Jedi softy, or my Revan, who reclaimed his title, took Bastila as his dark apprentice, slew the Jedi who conspired to steal his memories, slew his former apprentice who tried to challenge him, and went on to conquer the galaxy. |

From what I've read it seems as if it's to be soft Jedi Reborn Revan, not Darth Revan. I believe it's Kylar Stern up next. |

Kylar Stern has a lot of fans out there. I didn't know Rachel Morgan had such a huge following. I think this may be his toughest match yet. |

I tend to agree. Locally alone, Weeks' novels had been on the Number One spot for months in almost all bookstores when they first came out. |

They both fit the same archetype, that's for sure. :-) |
