Line 237:
** And, of course, the character lists in the front of the books, which are so riddled with spoilers it's a wonder they still put them in the front of the books. If a character dies sometime in the book, they are treated as dead.
* In the ''Blue is for Nightmares'' series, {{spoiler|Jacob dies}} at the end of ''Silver is for Secrets''. This is helpfully revealed on the back of the sequel ''Red is for Remembrance''. Of course, the back of ''Black is for Beginnings'' helpfully notes out that {{spoiler|he actually was Not Dead Yet}}.
* Enoch Root, of [[Neal Stephenson]]'s ''[[Cryptonomicon]]'' and ''[[The Baroque Cycle]]'' is
* First words on the back of the second ''[[Tawny Man (Literature)|Tawny Man]]'' book by [[Robin Hobb]]? {{spoiler|Nighteyes is dead.}} Thanks a lot.
** Even worse than that is that readers who aren't very careful (or aren't sure about book's names) will read the preview chapter at the end of ''[[Liveship Traders (Literature)|Ship of Destiny]]'', and find out that very spoiler. I spent the entirety of ''Fool's Errand'' thinking "Okay, shouldn't this happen in the beginning? Yeah, it's supposed to happen. I'm 50 pages from the end, it hasn't happened. Okay, just happened. I guess I should feel sad now. Hmm."
