Talk:Aloysius Pendergast

message: Mount Dragon mentions GeneDyne, which is mentioned in Brimstone and Dance of Death.  Thunderhead has Nora Kelly and is mentioned in the same; Smithback actually names it as one of his own books.  The Ice Limit article mentions it has Eli Glinn who appears in some Pendergast novels.  Perhaps Riptide fits in somehow too.
Somebody who's read these should perhaps note that they exist in the same universe as Pendergast's, and how. Шизомби (talk) 17:12, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

message: '''
I recently finished reading Relic, indeed it was today, and wondered where the editor of the weapons descriptions got his information about Pendergast using a 5 shot revolver. It' s simply not mentioned how many shots are held in Pendergast's gun. In the end there is even a bullet count sequence where it's explicitly told, that after a 5 shot sequence he only had one shot remaining.--87.174.108.198 (talk) 15:16, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I found the following ambiguous, as it's unclear whether the 2nd 'his'
referes to Pendergast or his chauffeur.  I therefore changed it to "all of
Pendergast's suits"
"Pendergast owns a 1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith; his chauffeur and personal assistant is a mysterious man named Proctor.  All of his suits ..."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.36.215.172 (talk) 21:13, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I know that in a book... what is The Book of the Dead ?, Pendergast L in his surname was clarifier to Leng, and this page was thus edited. But it seems that this mention has disappeared altogether. Is it normal ? I'm reading Fever Dream ATM, so things may have changed in this last book. Thanks.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.140.199.74 (talk) 10:26, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The only mention that I can find that Douglas Preston stated that Pendergast's middle name is not Leng is in a talk forum where it is referenced.  This is not conclusive enough to negate that Pendergast's middle name is Leng. Pickalittletalkalittle (talk) 21:35, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

message: The Relic- A Colt Anaconda double-action revolver in .45 Colt, custom penetrator ammunition
The Reliquary- Anschluss GMBH 9mm, ceramic/Teflon ammo (fictional); Colt XM-177E2 carbine, M79 40mm grenade launcher, flamethrower.
Cabinet of Curiousities- Two-tone Colt 1911 (page 547), customized by Les Baer Custom, including tritium night sights and Crimson Trace LaserGrips (page 556). Les wasn't always an OEM manufacturer with his house brand frames, slides, and barrels, so this "difference" is not irreconcilable with the historical record. Les had run the custom shop at Springfield Armory at one point too.
Still Life with Crows- Les Baer, details unspecified.
Brimstone- Les Baer, details unspecified.
Dance of Death- Wilson Combat TSGC .45ACP (a compact 1911 similar to the Colt CCO), and a Hilton Yam Signature Grade 1911 is mentioned as being in his collection. Hilton preferred Colts as his base guns when he was still 'smithing as a part-time job.
The Book of the Dead- Colt 1911, details unspecified.
And I have to update this list I'd kept online to reflect the last few novels, which are basically monogamous to Les Baer.WiseguyThreeOne (talk) 13:12, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
