** Either this or HilariousInHindsight, depending on your view: Pretty much ''absolutely everything'' in ''Changes'', ''Ghost Story,'' ''Peace Talks,'' and ''Battle Ground'' only happens, directly or indirectly, because Molly gave Harry the idea to have bondage sex with Susan.

** Harry states that he can't really blame Marcone for building his own power base and becoming a criminal in order to protect one child, and might have even done the same thing himself. Come books like ''Changes'' and ''Battle Ground''...

* AssPull: That the war with the Red Court was always going to happen,starting it early was in fact a good thing, and it coming from Shiro pretty out of the blue can come off as a cheap hand wave to relieve Harry and Susan of the responsibility of their actions in Literature/GravePeril.

* FunnyAneurysmMoment: Harry at one point, remarking on Thomas's strained relations with his father Lord Raith, sarcastically compares Raith to Creator/BillCosby for his fathering skills (in this book published in 2003). Over a decade later, it seems Lord Raith (a wealthy, successful, long-lived SerialRapist) has much more in common with Bill Cosby than we knew back then...

* HilariousInHindsight: When Thomas shows up to the duel, he's wearing a ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' shirt. This is funny enough on its own, as he ''is'' a vampire. But fast forward to the production of the audiobook, which is narrated by Creator/JamesMarsters, who played Spike in ''Buffy''. Making it an unintentional ActorAllusion.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: During the climax, Harry encounters a guard dog/demon thing of Nicodemus’s. After fending it off, it disappears, Harry never mentions it again, and even in his later appearances, Nicodemus doesn’t use any such creatures.

Nothing to do with him being gender blind — which isn't a YMMV trope — and he realizes it in the last handful of pages here, with no time to tell anyone else in a situation where it would matter, so it's not Idiot Ball either. Word Of God is that he doesn't tell anyone later on because part of him thinks he might be able to snag the noose for himself.
