Spoiler!!!


I just listened to the audiobook and I want to know the specific text ie if there's capitalization or something else that's unique. It's the bit when Richard is back at the office and playing with the two trolls. Any help would be appreciated!

Then, because he had nothing else to do for the next ten minutes, he picked up an orange troll and menaced a slightly smaller green-haired troll with it. "I am the greatest warrior of London Below. Prepare to die," he said, in a dangerous trollish voice, waggling the orange troll. Then he picked up the green-haired troll, and said, in a smaller trollish voice, "Aha! But first you shall drink the nice cup of tea..."

Unfortunatey, I don't have the definitive edition, so this may not help you. But I'm willing to post more if you want it.

Ah, that's exactly what I wanted. After listening to it (and what a joy that was, let me tell you), I thought perhaps it would be "the Nice Cup of Tea..." but I guess not. Thanks!

You're welcome. Again, I don't have the author's preferred edition, or whatever that text is called, so if you get the chance to check that, please do. Smile Glad you enjoyed the listen -- it is quite, quite wonderful, I totally agree!!

Although, there IS capitalisation in another part of the book (spoilers ahead) -after getting the Key from the monks, they go back to the Floating Market (Richard, Door and Hunter, I think, the Marquis isn't there if I remember correctly). And Richard feels proud cause he passed the Ordeal and thus is "one of the gang". And Door goes to Hammersmith and asks him to make the chian for her, and asks Richard to get food. He thinks something like "He was one of them now. He had a mission, he would Go Get Food". Well, I'm quoting from memory, but it's something like that. Just thought I'd mention.
